Dustin has spent more than 20 years building a career in the outdoor living industry through hands-on experience, entrepreneurship, and a passion for creating meaningful spaces. Born and raised in Fort Worth, Dustin graduated from Southwest High School before attending Tarleton State University. His journey started young mowing yards and steadily grew into managing large-scale, high-end masonry projects in areas like Possum Kingdom.

Over the years, Dustin expanded into multiple construction ventures and operated a landscape supply yard serving builders, contractors, and homeowners across the region. Through every stage of his career, Dustin recognized a gap in the industry and envisioned a company that could bring outdoor living, construction, and retail together under one roof. That vision became the foundation for The Collective Outdoors.

Known for his creativity, leadership, and eye for design, Dustin is driven by the idea that outdoor spaces could bring people together and create memories that last for generations.
