Character Matters

Character Matters® is our foundational maxim; our core values its roots. Brown Fox was founded on the belief that our pursuit of these values leads to a successful law firm, lawyer, leader, and person. We hire, make decisions, represent clients, interact in conflict, and strive to lead our lives devoted to these principles.


Integrity

The Texas Lawyer’s Creed calls for lawyers to adhere to “the highest levels of professionalism” in our practices. We agree.  We strive to act with high-integrity—honesty, ethics, and strong moral foundation—in every relationship and seize opportunities to celebrate high-integrity leadership in our team.

Servant Leadership

We believe that great leaders rise through service, and the legacy of a successful leader is marked by building up and protecting others.

We hire the top talent available and reinforce a culture that expects every team member to bring his or her A-game every step of the way. Our goal is to bring excellence to the table in every encounter, whether negotiation, pleading, transaction, or trial. Our clients should expect nothing less.

From everything C.S. Lewis, to books on history, to my favorite English Premier League and Hoover Institute podcasts, I’ve logged more than a few hours on these and have met a much expanded world in the process. They serve as a portal to quiet, education and entertainment on planes and help me pass the daily workouts on my row machine.

Reading has always been more than a pastime for me; it’s a way to continuously learn and grow. Classics, business books, biographies, and the spiritual guidance from the Bible have each uniquely enriched my understanding of the world. There’s a joy in sharing a book with others, knowing it might provide a fresh perspective. Reading is a journey that never ends!

I’ve had the travel bug from a young age. I prioritize experiencing something that I’ve never experienced before in every country I visit, while also eating unique delicacies that aren’t found elsewhere in the world.

Spartan Races are the ultimate in obstacle-course races. They are a brutal mental and physical challenge – combining long-distance running with dozens of grueling obstacles. For some reason, there are also incredibly fun. This proves I completed the Spartan Trifecta – finishing the three different races of 4, 7, and 13 miles in one calendar year. These races give me the motivation to stay in shape, and I hope there are many more Trifectas in my future.

I have always been a bookworm – biographies, fiction, spiritual books, you name it. I think reading is the most important educational tool, and it’s still my favorite way to unwind.

My passion for international travel began during my first trip outside of the United States to study abroad one summer at the Sorbonne in Paris, France.  The opportunity to observe and embrace the beauty of foreign lands and cultures ignited my passion to travel, which still burns bright today.  However, my compass will always point home to my family in the great State of Texas.

The Verdict, one of my favorite lawyer films, has some great teaching lessons notwithstanding the protagonist’s flawed character. Despite a host of challenges – an unscrupulous opposing counsel, a judge who tried to railroad his case, and an expert who disappeared on the eve of trial – he outworked a small army of opposing lawyers and went to the mat for his client all the way to jury verdict.

Of all the diplomas and degrees I’ve earned, the most rewarding was from high school. The International Baccalaureate curriculum is by far one of the most difficult and life changing programs I’ve ever endured, paving the way for foundations of self-discipline and organization as well as a lifelong passion for learning.

I grew up playing soccer, starting in defence and then moving on to the forward left wing. I got introduced to rugby in college, and, similar to soccer, started in a more defensive position, and ended up as an attacking right winger. Not many things in sport beat the thrill of turning a defensive play to an offensive play, zooming past opposing players, with nothing but the hiss of the wind and the faint urgings of my teammates in my ears, and scoring, in either soccer or rugby. I get to enjoy that thrill in pickup games these days, and hope my kids can too one day.

My dogs represent some of the best characteristics that a person can strive for: love, loyalty, and an unwavering ability to get back up again…whether that is for a tennis ball or a new challenge.

I inherited a love for cooking and baking from my sweet Mama. Some of my best dishes have been thrown together with little thought and limited ingredients and are my most requested dishes. I have so many fond memories with my Mama in her kitchen, and I am now I am passing that “ladle” to my own daughters.

I have a growing collection of vinyl records, and enjoy seeing live music whenever I can and discovering new artists. I’m often asked to make playlists for special occasions.
