MEMBERSHIP MONDAY SPOTLIGHT

🌟 Meet David Herzog, CEO of Herzog Homes, our featured member for #MembershipMonday!

🏠 His start in the industry: David got his start in high school carrying lumber for a framing contractor. After launching his own framing company and attending college, he began building homes in 1994. A chance meeting in Rome brought him to Houston, where he traded his passport for cowboy boots — and now builds award-winning homes across Texas.

👷 GHBA: David has been a GHBA member for about four years and credits fellow builder Chris Bolio for inviting him to join. With decades of HBA involvement across the East Coast, David found in GHBA a network of motivated leaders who energize and inspire him, noting the entrepreneurial spirit and camaraderie that keeps him focused and growing. Today, David serves as treasurer of the Custom Builders Council and is a TAB director. Previously, he was named NAHB’s America’s Best Builder and earned dozens of industry awards on the East Coast.

🤝 Charity Work: David is deeply involved with St. Jude and CAP, and he leads the Rita D. Herzog Kindness Foundation, honoring his mother through acts of kindness.

🚗 Passions: When he’s not traveling, David enjoys spending time with his beloved cats, Princess Grace and Zoey the Bold — and hitting the road in one of his cars.

🏡 GHBA’s Impact: “Being a part of the GHBA — especially the Custom Builders Council — has been a game changer for me. The entrepreneurial energy and drive among the members constantly push me to be better. I’ve made meaningful connections with other leaders who inspire me, and that network has had a real impact on both my business and my focus,” David said. ... See MoreSee Less

👷 GHBA: E.L. has been involved with the GHBA for 11 years, including seven years as an active SMC board member.

Today, he serves on the Sales & Marketing Council board of directors.

🤝 Charity Work: E.L. supports Sleep in Heavenly Peace, helping raise funds to provide beds for children and families in need.
