Who is David?
When he's not traveling for work or implementing enterprise solutions, David likes to spend time with friends, exercise, and explore new technologies. One of his favorite activities is running, and if he can't be found online, then he is probably off running a trail somewhere, training for his next Spartan Race or marathon.
Ever since David was young, his mother was constantly trying to get him off the computer to spend more time outside. He has always had a passion for technology, and gaming in particular. Through online gaming, he found an outlet to feed his competitive drive. Along the way, he built his skills in teamwork, leadership, communication, and learned many lessons that have helped him in his journey through life and his professional career.

Life Philosophy
"The 'no days off' mentality developed during my college years continues to drive me today. I believe in continuous improvement, whether it's pushing physical limits in a Spartan Race, mastering new technologies, or delivering exceptional value to clients. Every challenge is an opportunity to grow, and every experience – from gaming to global travel – contributes to becoming a more well-rounded professional and person."
