Leanne Goplen Zabriskie
hired Lee as a Real Estate Agent in 2007 , and hired Lee more than once
“I haven’t hired Lee but recommending him as a service provider is the best of the choices. I did have the pleasure of working with Lee for six weeks in 2007. I was his trainer in pretty much the toughest sales training course that exists in the real estate industry. Lee took every session seriously and worked tirelessly to put his new skills to work. Some of my students just give up when it gets tough, but not Lee. That’s maybe the biggest reason I’d recommend him as a Realtor and have no hesitation hiring him were I to need an agent myself in the Houston area.” January 16, 2008
Top qualities: Great Results , Personable , High Integrity

President at University of Texas at Austin Economics Association (UTEA)
“Through his vision, leadership skills, and drive, Lee took an organization that lacked membership and credibility and grew it into one of the primier organizations in the University.” February 9, 2006
David Rockwell
worked directly with Lee at University of Texas at Austin Economics Association (UTEA)
“This man is the classic leader. Everything he said about being the President of UTEA is accurate and true, albeit a little modest. He organized a working relationship with the Liberal Arts Career Center at University of Texas at Austin, and steered the increase of membership more than he indicates. I became an officer of UTEA after I met Lee in one of our classes. Cheers.” February 9, 2006
