• Drake Screws

    is a Texas-born entrepreneur and second-generation custom homebuilder whose career has been shaped by a lifelong connection to design, construction, and craftsmanship. The son of a respected builder and an accomplished interior designer, Drake was introduced to the world of homebuilding at an early age, where an appreciation for quality, precision, and legacy became second nature.

    While attending Texas A&M University, he launched his first construction company, combining entrepreneurial grit with hands-on experience. In 2016, he returned to Austin to take over the day-to-day operations of his family’s homebuilding business, continuing a legacy of excellence in the Central Texas real estate market.

    Driven by a deep respect for heritage and artisanship, Drake went on to found La Caza Spirits, a premium tequila brand rooted in authenticity and built in close partnership with master distillers in Mexico. Since its launch, La Caza has expanded into over 24 states, earning a reputation for quality, integrity, and thoughtful storytelling.

    Whether building custom homes or crafting spirits, Drake’s work reflects a lifestyle anchored in timeless design, meaningful collaboration, and a commitment to honoring tradition while building for the future.
