ICON CEO, David Evans and Associates Inc.
You will find few people who are more appreciative of the opportunities they’ve been given in life than Al Barkouli, the CEO of David Evans and Associates.
From humble beginnings in the North African country of Libya all the way to becoming the head of a nationally respected multidisciplinary firm, Barkouli has eagerly taken advantage of those opportunities to not only advance his career but make those around him better.
“What we do here is help other people, and being recognized isn’t really the goal,” said Barkouli. “It’s been a really nice journey, and this is the land of opportunity in many ways for me. But part of what’s different is for me, at least, I approach a lot of this with a deep sense of gratitude. Even with the challenges and difficulties there is something to be grateful for.”
