Sanjeev Kumar is a family man and local businessperson. He and his wife of 28 years, Donna, moved to Austin 13 years ago from Seattle with their two girls who are now college graduates. They chose Lakeway because of the friendly people, resort lifestyle and close-knit community.
Before marriage, Sanjeev immigrated to the U.S. from India at age 22 with $900 to his name. Subsequently a self- made man, he eventually co-founded Portal Player, a semiconductor startup, and grew it into a NASDAQ-listed company that was instrumental to the initial generations of Apple iPods. He is now the founder and Managing Partner at Hunt Pennington Kumar & Dula PLLC in Austin, which provides legal services to entrepreneurs and business owners in the areas of business and corporate law and intellectual property.
His years as an entrepreneur—directing diverse personalities of customers, suppliers and partners around the globe and working as a lawyer—developed savvy bridge-building, negotiation and practical problem-solving skills. He believes in seeing the big picture. Consideration of all perspectives and short and long-term consequences of actions is key to a healthy community. These qualities, combined with his passionate desire to strive for smooth growth management of Lakeway, is why he seeks to become your team member on City Council.
