About Universal Billiards

"Mac" got involved with billiards manufacturing as a young man. In 1995, he founded Universal Billiards and grew the company to be a true powerhouse in a few short years. His easy-going sense of humor, creativity and tireless spirit continue to inspire our team.

Daniel McIntire founded Universal Billiards and now his daughter, Ciarra, carries the torch, growing and refining the business. Through her inherited work ethic and her unique attention to detail, stress is down, morale is high and customer service remains unrivaled in DFW!

Since the late 2000's, Mark has helped Universal Billiards execute many initiatives. From billboard ads and website overhauls, to store remodels and design shows, he has proven to be a great asset for the company. His dog Alley is pretty great too (see below).

With over 30 years in the furniture industry, you can see why Preston is an integral member of our team. His knowledge and wisdom is unparalleled while his demeanor is relaxed and fun. When you work with Preston you are working with one of the best!

David started with us years ago as a billiards mechanic and now brings those skills and talents to our sales floor. He's become an all-time favorite with customers thanks to his intimate knowledge of the service side of the industry and his genuine friendliness!

As a master craftsman with over 30 years in woodworking, Homer brings a level of quality to our products that far surpasses anyone else in the industry. His skills, unwavering work ethic and great sense of humor are a huge contribution to the company!

Born and raised in Dallas and a former Oklahoma State University Basketball player, Michael brings positive energy and passion into everything he does. With over 700 pool tables under his belt and counting, he is a valued member of our install team. When he isn’t working on pool tables and shuffleboards, he is spending time with his daughter Tansy.

Dillon comes to us from Bronxville, New York. He is hands down, one of the nicest guys you will ever meet. His passion for pool tables is rivaled only by his passion for music. His experience and knowledge help every install he is on run smoothly. He is pound for pound the strongest member of our delivery/install team.

Will comes to us from Colorado City, TX and has proven to be one of our most vital team members. His upbeat attitude and strong work ethic makes every job he assists with run effectively and efficiently. He is an avid golfer so when he isn't working on pool tables and shuffle boards you can find him at the golf course.

Cameron grew up in New Jersey but now calls Dallas home. His cool, calm demeanor and willingness to help anyone in need is a great asset for our service team! In his spare time, he's a car audiophile, working on high-end mobile audio and electronics.

Since joining us from the beautiful state of Washington, Tyson has proved to be a vital member of the team combining strength, stamina, and an abundance of common sense. He's always cool under pressure, always on time and always in a good mood!

Andy joins us from Austin, TX and he brings his artistic roots with him. Formally educated in biochem, it’s no surprise he's sharp. With over 3 years in the billiards industry, his quick wit and sharp focus make working with Andy stress free!

Coming to us from Lubbock, it’s no surprise that Timmy has a background in machining parts for oil rigs. Not only is this guy mechanically inclined, but he's a great team player, always the first to volunteer his assistance and lend a hand.

Caleb has roots in Beaumont, TX where he wrestled in HS. He now holds a black belt in Judo and in Taekwondo. He manages the heavy lifting we do on a daily basis with ease and somehow, he never stops cracking jokes no matter how tough the situation gets.

Hailing from Huntington Beach, Prince is a man of many talents. With a background in construction, it comes as no surprise that he’s super strong and mechanically inclined. In his free time, Prince also dukes it out in underground rap battles in Deep Ellum, TX!

Ryan studies business management and plays baseball at Weatherford College. He’s played since age 5 and developed an outstanding work ethic and an eye for detail. Of his personal possessions, he is most proud of his tin foil ball that is now over 3 feet in diameter!

Braden is our youngest team member but don't take him for granted. His stamina and agility are boundless. He runs circles around us whether at work or on the field, be it soccer, volleyball, wake-boarding... you get the point! He also sports a year-round tan.

Alley has been honing her security protocols for over 14 years! She definitely wouldn't want us to share that her ultimate weakness is her affinity for Einstein Bagel's "Doggie Bagels" and that if you have one of those in your pocket you've got full security clearance!
