TERRENCE MAIDEN
Terrence Maiden grew up in the Oak Cliff area of Dallas. He was an All-State football player for David W. Carter High School [featured in films Carter High / Friday Night Lights]. His accomplishments on the gridiron would later afford him a full athletic scholarship to Texas Christian University [TCU]. Terrence and his identical twin brother Tim would play vital roles in TCU’s rise from a marginal football program to national prominence in the early 2000s, securing two conference championships and appearing in three consecutive bowls. As a linebacker for the Horned Frogs, Terrence would be one of the teams leading tacklers for the best defense in the country. Instead of pursuing an opportunity to play football professionally, Terrence would have the fortune of getting introduced to commercial real estate development by Dale Ladner, a distinguished TCU alumni.
Terrence is currently the Chief Executive Officer of Russell Glen, which is a real estate development and investment company in Dallas, Texas. With over two decades of experience in the real estate industry, he leads and inspires the company’s growth. Terrence is known for his visionary and transformative approach to commercial real estate projects. He is currently leading the multi-award-winning redevelopment project of the Shops at RedBird, formerly known as the Red Bird Mall.
Before establishing Russell Glen, Terrence served as Executive Vice President at Corinth Properties. While at Corinth Properties, his most signature development projects were Glen Oaks Crossings, Hatcher Station, Center City, Canyon in Oak Cliff, and Alexan West Dallas. Terrence began his real estate career with The Woodmont Company, project leasing and developing projects throughout Texas, New Mexico, Louisiana, and North Dakota. He subsequently managed the development and expansion strategy for Panda Express and Panera, LLC (Director of Real Estate/VP of Real Estate) throughout the central United States.
Terrence received a Bachelor of Science and Engineering degree from Texas Christian University, where he and his identical twin brother Tim were standout football players for the Horned Frogs. In 2015 both Maiden brothers were inducted into the Texas Christian University Hall of Fame.
Terrence currently serves as Chairman of the Maiden Foundation, a nonprofit organization that invests in educational and community revitalization projects. He is also actively involved in many other charitable/civic organizations, including AT&T Performing Arts Center [Board of Directors], UT Southwestern Medical [President’s Advisory Board], I Am A Golfer Foundation [Board of Directors], International Council of Shopping Centers [Board of Trustees], Urban Land Institute Dallas/Fort Worth (Executive Board), Circuit Trail Conservancy[Board of Directors], University of North Texas Dallas Foundation [Board of Directors], Methodist Health System, Dallas [Advisory Board], Dallas Arboretum [Board of Directors], and Texas Christian Black Alumni Association [Vice Chair].
Terrence has widely been recognized for his leadership and community impact. D CEO Magazine has listed him as DALLAS 500 most influential leaders for three consecutive years. For nine consecutive years, he has been named to the Dallas Power Broker list, and in 2019, he was named “Power Broker of the Year” by D CEO Magazine.
