At The Retail Connection we’re excited to welcome two new team members

 Doug Williams
ANALYST | BROKERAGE 

Doug Williams is an Analyst at The Retail Connection’s Dallas office, where he applies his strong analytical skills and passion for commercial real estate to support the brokerage team on a wide range of projects. 

Prior to joining TRC, Doug gained experience on the sales team at All Roads Travel, interned at Northwestern Mutual during the summer of 2023, and worked remotely for Barger and Associates while completing his final years of college.

Doug, a Texas native, graduated from Keller High School, where he was actively involved in football, baseball, and track. He went on to earn his bachelor’s degree in Finance and Economics with a focus on Real Estate Finance and Wealth Management from the University of Oklahoma’s Price College of Business. During his time at OU, Doug was a member of the OU Capital Group Fellows, the OU Real Estate Club, the Economics Club, and the Wealth Management Club.

Outside of the office, he’s an avid Dallas sports fan who enjoys watching games with friends and training in Muay Thai and kickboxing for fun.

 Jaxx Hatton
ANALYST | BROKERAGE 

 Jaxx Hatton is an Analyst at The Retail Connection, based in the Dallas office, where he leverages his solid background and growing expertise in the real estate industry. Jaxx supports the team by delivering insightful data and research that help drive informed decisions in the competitive real estate landscape.

Jaxx earned his bachelor’s degree in Finance with a specialization in Real Estate from Southern Methodist University. While at SMU, he interned with Lee Lewis Construction as an estimator, where he gained valuable hands-on experience and discovered his passion for a career in brokerage.

A Dallas native, Jaxx attended Trinity Christian Academy, where he played baseball, before heading to Highland Park to continue his education at SMU.

A fun fact about Jaxx: many of the veteran brokers at TRC know his dad, Bervin, a well-respected figure in the DFW brokerage community who has clearly passed down his strong relationship-building skills.
