Alan is businessman here in Austin since moving here twenty-four years ago from Boulder, Colorado where he owned an art gallery for twelve years. He currently runs a retail store on South Congress and a small metal fabrication shop up in Jollyville. He’s also worked as a professional musician for the last forty years and originally moved to Austin to work together with a group of musicians with whom he still performs.
Alan was raised to believe that it is one’s duty to help those unable to help themselves. He’s volunteered for a variety of benevolence organizations for the last thirty years, including the Big Brothers Big Sisters and Boulder County AIDS Project in Colorado; and AIDS Services of Austin, Project Transitions, and the Octopus Club here in Austin. Through his membership in University Baptist Church, he’s helped feed and shelter the homeless youth that live on the streets around the university.
We love Alan’s diverse background of service and volunteerism, and we’re looking forward to the great things he’ll contribute to our community as a Kiwanian!
