Transwestern's New SW Head Plans Cap Markets Expansion in DEN
Say hello to Transwestern's new Denver head honcho, Kevin Roberts. Kevin has been named as regional VP of Transwesterns newly created Southwest territory, created out of a number of hot markets: Houston, Austin, San Antonio, Denver, Salt Lake City, and New Orleans. The cities have similarly educated populations and strong job growth. (And they all play each other in basketball.) But Kevin, a 24-year vet of the firm, loves that Transwestern is decentralized, so each city is handled individually.
The firm wants to expand its capital markets platform into Denver and Salt Lake, but his first priority is fostering a stronger connection within the new territory. Kevin will be based in Houston but is visiting Denver now. In case you run into him, we dug up some fun facts to break the ice: He has four sons (and they're all taller than he is, above); his last supper would be a thick steak with a bold cab (but he's not sure he'd be hungry if he knew it was his last meal); and his favorite vacation spot is anywhere in Mexico.
