Troy Dunson Outreach Director

Troy Dunson is a proud Texan hailing from Fort Worth, Texas, whose journey through life has been marked by a steadfast commitment to forging connections, achieving goals, and serving others. In 1991, Troy embarked on a significant chapter of his life by joining the U.S. Navy during the first Gulf War. Since then, he has made Austin, Texas his cherished home.


With over 25 years of diverse global experiences, Troy has honed a unique skill set that seamlessly blends technical proficiency as a sales engineer with the drive and finesse of a goal-oriented salesperson and realtor. This rare combination allowed him to not only grasp clients’ intricate technical needs but also establish deep, meaningful connections with them, particularly in the realms of authentication, data, and software security.


Troy’s expertise in information security, coupled with his success as an account manager and channel account manager, positioned him as an invaluable asset, consistently surpassing sales targets. His unyielding faith, coupled with a talent for nurturing relationships, unwavering determination, and a deep-seated dedication to supporting veterans and first responders, led him to The Guardian Community.


As the Regional Outreach Director, Troy plays a pivotal role in cultivating connections with general managers and golf professionals across numerous courses. His driving force is to make a positive impact on the lives of veterans and first responders within the community, a mission he pursues with unrelenting zeal.


Outside of his professional pursuits, Troy is deeply embedded in the local community and is a well-known figure in various veteran circles. His devotion to community service is further underscored by his strong family ties. He is happily married to his wife Elizabeth, and together, they share the joys and responsibilities of raising five children. Two of their children are currently in high school, two are pursuing higher education in college, and the eldest has successfully graduated and embarked on a career as a pilot.


Through his unwavering dedication to service, Troy Dunson continues to leave an indelible mark on both the veteran community and the broader society, exemplifying the power of purpose-driven leadership and the enduring impact of genuine human connections.
