He is a green building professional-with significant expertise in environmentally sound practices-and a member of the Austin chapter of the National
Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI). Noteworthy projects are presented in Stylish Sheds and Elegant Hideaways, House Transformed and multiple remodeling publications, all demonstrating the breadth of David’s ingenuity.
