About David Osborne
David Osborne has spent more than two decades redefining what wealth management can be—personal, purposeful, and rooted in trust. As the Founder and CEO of On Alpha Capital, an independent boutique advisory firm with offices in Austin and Dallas, he has guided families, entrepreneurs, and professional athletes toward financial clarity and long-term confidence. His philosophy is simple: wealth should serve life, not the other way around. David Osborne created On Alpha Capital in Austin and Dallas to provide something rare in modern finance—conflict-free, relationship-driven advice that aligns every decision with each client’s unique goals, values, and vision for the future. Under his leadership, the firm has become a trusted partner for those navigating complex financial landscapes, from generational estate planning to investing in the digital economy.
David Osborne’s career began at Morgan Stanley in New York and Dallas, where he specialized in equity portfolio design, retirement planning, and income strategies. His early years on Wall Street gave him invaluable technical experience but also exposed the limits of large-scale corporate finance. He saw how rigid structures and sales-driven models often failed to serve clients’ best interests. In 1999, he chose to take a different path—one built on independence, transparency, and genuine client partnership. That decision led to the founding of what would become On Alpha Capital, a firm dedicated to providing fully customized financial strategies for people at every stage of life, from growing families and business owners to athletes managing sudden wealth.

His approach is centered on education and discipline—empowering young professionals to make informed decisions that support long-term financial independence.
Licensed in more than twenty states, Osborne holds an impressive suite of industry credentials, including FINRA Series 7, 24, 31, 55, 63, and 65, as well as certifications as a General Securities Principal, Equity Trader, and Group 1 Life & Health Insurance License holder. These qualifications enable him to serve a diverse range of clients, from high-net-worth families and entrepreneurs to entertainers and corporations requiring sophisticated financial stewardship. His forward-thinking approach also integrates modern asset classes such as cryptocurrency and blockchain ventures, always balanced within a disciplined, diversified portfolio framework.
A graduate of Texas State University, Osborne earned his BBA in Finance on a golf scholarship and was an active member of Pi Kappa Alpha. The lessons of teamwork, discipline, and perseverance he learned through athletics continue to shape his leadership style and client philosophy. Away from the office, David Osborne enjoys life in Austin, where he spends time with his family, plays ice hockey, and takes in the city’s vibrant live-music scene. Whether advising a client, mentoring a young athlete, or strategizing his next round on the golf course, David Osborne brings the same focus, integrity, and commitment to excellence that have defined his career and the enduring success of On Alpha Capital.
