our story

Our story begins in 2021, as a small but mighty financial advisory firm founded originally in Inglewood, Los Angeles, California and now located in Manor, Austin, Texas. Our founder Howard Douglas spent meaningful early years at various firms within the industry and noticed repetitive themes which had a "not so great" impact on clients; from a churn and burn culture of recruiting and disposing of advisors, an over-emphasis on quantity instead of quality in number of prospective client relationships, conflicts of interests between firms and clients, lacking of skills and knowledge pertaining to effective financial planning, overemphasis on products, and many other issues. After considering all of the positives and negatives from these experiences, he decided to start his own firm; one that respects each individual client relationship, puts the client's interests ahead of their own, emphasizes education, one that goes above and beyond in servicing, and that set high standards for itself in performance and ethics.

Douglas Capital Advisors is a firm built on service, attention to detail, and respect. Building a service model that can meet the needs of high earnings professionals or business owners regardless of where they are in their business lifecycle. All are welcome, all are respected.

Howard leads a team of diverse professionals set out to solve problems and find financial peace for the clients they serve. Howard is a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER ™ as of December 2022 and has been a registered investment adviser representative as of 2016. He is married with two young children. He is a member Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity Inc., and a former college athlete and graduate of West Virginia State University.  Thank you for reviewing our firm.
