The MHN Rising Star Award is reserved for a few select individuals annually, recognizing exceptional achievement and promise in the multifamily industry.
“David’s recognition as an MHN Rising Star is no surprise to those of us who work with him,” said Billy Fox, Principal and President at MLG Capital. “He brings energy, integrity, and genuine care for others and excellence that elevates our team every day. We’re proud to see him honored for the impact he’s making.”
David serves as Vice President at MLG Capital, focusing on acquisitions within the Southeast Sunbelt markets.

Since joining MLG in 2019, David has been directly involved in over $1.7 billion in acquisitions, demonstrating a unique combination of hustle, humility, and good humor.
