Douglas Brockhouse is a Sioux Falls native. Born in the West Sioux Falls area, his family owned the old West Sioux Hardware which was known for great ice cream cones and housed a mounted animal collection (currently on display at the Great Plains Zoo.)
Doug has had an interesting background leading up to his career in commercial real estate. After receiving his Bachelor of Science degree in Electrical Engineering from the South Dakota School of Mines, he became a commissioned officer in the NOAA Corps. He spent several years offshore on research vessels.
Doug returned to Sioux Falls, made a career change and entered the trucking industry. He spent four years driving over-the-road then the next ten years working in management of two different transportation companies. Doug became president of the SD Safety Management Council, president of the Sioux Falls Transportation & Industry Group, SD Truck Driving Championship Chairman and held numerous other posts in transportation industry groups.
In the area of community involvement, Doug once again has taken a route less traveled. Doug is a team leader with the Minnehaha County Emergency Management Dive Team. His team has been involved in multiple underwater search and recovery efforts and forensic work. He is one of a few under-ice swimmer/divers in the region.
Soon after his entry into the field of commercial real estate, Doug began his pusuit of the CCIM Designation (Certified Commercial Investment Member) completing that training and fulfilling the transaction volume requirements in just two years. SIOR (Society of Industrial and Office Realtors) is another professional organization that he is an active participant in. Doug is the incoming 2009 President for the SIOR Minnesota Chapter.
