Richard, a principal agent of the ARK Property Team, offers a rich blend of experience and a heartfelt connection to Central Texas. Originally from Lampasas, TX, Richard's appreciation for the Hill Country's charm and community spirit was cultivated early on. After living in cities like Dallas, TX, Vancouver, WA, St. Louis, MO, and San Antonio, TX, he returned to Austin in 2003, drawn by its dynamic mix of nature, culture, and opportunity.
Richard's professional path began at H.E.B., where he developed strong customer service skills, rising to Customer Service Manager while studying at UTSA. With a degree in Accounting and a minor in Management Information Systems, he moved into sales and marketing, collaborating with Fortune 500 companies to optimize their operations. This role honed his expertise in strategic marketing, negotiation, and customer service.
Motivated by a passion for real estate and a desire to be closer to family, particularly after his son's autism diagnosis, Richard transitioned into real estate. His clients benefit from his vast experience and dedication to continuous learning. In partnership with Donna Ciccarelli and representing Realty Austin - Compass, Richard provides exceptional service.
Whether you're looking to buy, sell, or invest in residential, farm & ranch, or land development properties, Richard is committed to making a positive impact in his clients' lives, helping them achieve the lifestyle they desire in Austin, Central Texas and Beyond.
