I received my 1st degree from Southern Methodist
University in 1978 and completed my Doctor of Business Administration
degree in 2001. My Bachelor of Business Administration degree is
with a triple major (Business, Real Estate, and Management Science &
Computers). I have spent most of the years between either starting
or managing various companies. I began my real estate career with a
Texas real estate license in 1976 and my technology career with training
in computers while in the Military Intelligence during the Vietnam War.
The love of my life is Mary. We started our
partnership January
of 1970 and have had some interesting times, traveling the world. We
have lived and worked in Central and South America, Africa, as well as
Europe. Mary is also my business partner. She received her FL
real estate license in 1991 and helps me keep Gibbins Real Estate and
Consulting going. Mary holds the ABR, AHWD, CRS, e-PRO, and GRI
designations with NAR. She has been consistently a top producing
Realtor since she began her real estate career.
To
complete our family is Robbie. He is my pride and joy serving in
Afghanistan an now with the Port St. Lucie police department. Robbie
has been a black belt in Tae Kwon Do since he was 12 years old. He
loves to shoot and work with his saltwater fish tank.
There have been many changes since the beginning.
Eugene has always been multi-tasking and an organizer. His greatest
joy is helping others and creating from scratch. He created many
companies from scratch both in real estate and the computer industries.
