The recent Collective 54 Reunion at the beautiful Hotel Drover in Fort Worth's Stockyards was a powerful reminder of what can happen when pro-serv firm founders come together to share, learn, and grow. Each year, this event celebrates the strength of community among boutique firm leaders, and this year’s gathering felt especially inspiring.
Deborah joined CREW Houston for the Capital Markets Panel Discussion with Susan Hill and Cortney Cole. The outlook was positive, there’s more capital than borrowers, making it a competitive market for buyers. Debt markets remain strong, large banks are back, and credit availability looks excellent. Thank you to the panel for sharing valuable market insights!
This Veterans Day, we pause to honor the men and women who have served our nation with courage and dedication. Their commitment to something greater than themselves continues to inspire the work we do each day, helping communities, educators, and organizations bring meaningful spaces to life.
Second Baptist Church is Planting with Purpose as the Cypress campus enters an incredible season of expansion. With nearly 120,000 students in Cy Fair ISD and an estimated 33,120 new housing units projected over the next decade, Cypress stands among the fastest growing areas in Greater Houston. This surge in activity presents an extraordinary opportunity to meet the needs of this flourishing congregation. It is a vibrant community filled with families ready to connect, serve, and grow together.
The Professional Women of Influence “PWI” annual Halloween Party & Fundraiser, themed Zombie Prom, raised an impressive $65,000 for Child Advocates! Deborah had a blast connecting with fellow guests in costume and even took home 2nd place in the costume contest while supporting this meaningful cause. What a fun and impactful night!
Ever feel like a great project got lost in translation because the visuals just did not do it justice? You are not alone. We have all seen it — those eerie, lifeless visuals that miss the mark. Whether it is lighting that flattens the design, materials that look more trick than treat, or perspectives that leave the viewer guessing, bad renderings can haunt a great project long after they are shared.
Big turnout at the Economic Outlook & Networking event! Dr. Ted Jones shared a fast-paced, insightful look at Houston and Texas’ CRE markets, covering local rebounds, job growth, capital trends, and the 2027–2029 buying window. His message: stay curious, follow the data, and stay creative.
Archtoberfest 2025 once again brought together architects, designers, contractors, and friends from across the AEC community for an evening full of laughter, music, and good cheer at Bayou Heights Biergarten. From live polka and German food to the epic beer mug contest (congrats to Travis Power🏆), it was a night to remember. Thanks to the amazing Clunn family of Advantage Interior Supply!
