Dan Pierce - Project Manager
The third Dan to join our team at Five Star Painting in March of 2017.
Dan-P has experience in customer service and customer satisfaction dating back
to the 1980's. His experience in construction and sales makes him a perfect
fit for our Project Manager Position. After spending four years of mixing
Benjamin Moore paint, Dan and his wife Tracey decided it was time to move
to the warmer weather of Austin, Texas. Dan says, "My favorite thing
to do is spending time with my wife and children over the weekend when
they put me in charge of buying lunch or dinner".
Robert Lutz - Sales Manager
Robert Lutz is a life-long Austinite, having relocated here from upstate
NY in the late 1970's after college. He spent his first 11 years in Austin
as a painter and paint contractor when Austin was quite a bit different
than it is today. For the last thirty years, he's worked in sales, account
management, and business development mostly in the electronic imaging
industry. In his spare time, Robert loves playing guitar. He brings a
passion for customer service to each of his projects.

David Garcia - Sales
I am a born and raised Austinite who is currently attending Texas State
University in San Marcos. In my free time you can usually catch me enjoying
Austin's outdoor scene or one of the many music venues around town. I
have 5 years of experience in the coatings industry both residential and
commercial and this experience in the industry has helped me mold my knowledge
and expertise. I look forward to working with you on your next project!
