Randy Bowman

Director at Westwood Holdings

Randy is an accomplished businessperson who founded, presided over, and co-owned a successful logistics company, MWL, from 2001 until selling his interest in early 2017. His logistics company served the North American continent for Fortune 500 customers and achieved 49 consecutive quarters of operating profit. He now invests for his account (alone and with others), primarily in the under-invested portions of urban areas—like the ReImagine Red Bird development and MarLo1, both in Dallas. Before MWL, Randy spent 12 years as a corporate finance lawyer representing clients in transactions ranging from initial capitalizations through ultimate liquidity events. On the civic side, Bowman recently launched AT LAST! (an urban boarding experience providing impoverished elementary students the same educational resources and tools during the home life of their day as enjoyed by middle class-to- affluent students) and chairs on the board of Impact Dallas Capital (a mezzanine fund supporting the Mayor’s effort to increase investment in southern Dallas). He dedicated five years as a Chair and member of the board for the $3.75B City of Dallas Employee Retirement Fund. Finally, Randy served as the Chair of the Parkland Foundation Board during the last five years of its successful campaign to raise the final $150M necessary to build the new $1.3B Parkland Hospital.

He holds a B.A. degree from the University of Texas, is a member of the Friar Society and Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity, Incorporated. Randy graduated magna cum laude from Whittier College School of Law, where he served as the Editor-in-Chief of the Law Review.
