(GLOBE NEWSWIRE)<\/a> — The publication\u2019s annual list recognizes the North Texas region\u2019s most accomplished young professionals. The honor caps a multi-year run at the helm of the 1987-founded family foundation repair company, during which G.L. Hunt has expanded to five Texas markets, launched new service lines, and roughly doubled revenue in key metros.<\/p>\n ![\"G.L.](\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/ywAAAAAAQABAAACAUwAOw==\")

Slack\u2019s path into the foundation business didn\u2019t start with a business plan, it started with a family phone call. When his father-in-law and G.L. Hunt founder Gary Hunt faced serious health challenges, the family needed someone to step in and steward the company he had built. Slack\u2019s sisters-in-law weren\u2019t available. His brothers-in-law were pastors. Slack, who holds bachelor\u2019s and master\u2019s degrees in accounting from Angelo State University, was the one positioned to take it on.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was the only one who could take it on,\u201d Slack says. \u201cWhat started out as a family responsibility has turned into a passion for building a company that makes a real difference in people\u2019s lives.\u201d<\/p>\n
Under Slack\u2019s leadership, G.L. Hunt has doubled Austin revenue, grown San Antonio revenue by 40 percent, expanded into a new 15,000-square-foot facility, and added new offerings such as poly-foam concrete lifting to its service lineup. Founded by Gary Hunt in 1987, the company now serves homeowners from five Texas locations: Fort Worth, Dallas, Austin, San Antonio, and Waco.<\/p>\n
\u201cMuch like our lives, our businesses are shaped by thousands of small decisions,\u201d Slack says. \u201cConsistency is what led me to where I am today.\u201d<\/p>\n
Outside the office, Slack leans into the same Fort Worth community G.L. Hunt serves. When he\u2019s not at a job site, he and his wife can often be found catching a concert or the rodeo at Dickies Arena before heading down to the Stockyards to spend time at the Drover.<\/p>\n
