David's early life in an Indiana suburb of Chicago was marked by a large and creative family, with parents in their 40s who had children spanning 22 years in age difference. As the youngest of eight children, David was always surrounded by a lively and artistic extended family, yet by the time he was 12, all of his siblings had moved out of the house.
Growing up, David developed a passion for comedy and character bits, often creating them with his friends. He also wrote music and designed light shows, showcasing his creative talents from a young age. His high school, Lake Central High School in St. John, Indiana, had a strong focus on music and theatre, with a public TV station and top state programs in these areas. David even landed lead roles in semi-professional theatre performances as a teenager, and regularly participated in improvisation at theatre parties and events.
After graduating from Marquette University, David went on to study acting with renowned coaches in Los Angeles, including Stephen Book, further honing his skills in drama and emotion work. His early comedy background was a perfect foundation for his later work in the entertainment industry. David has since shot numerous commercials, TV episodes, and feature films in Los Angeles, earning multiple Short Film awards and an award for his acting demo reels.
In addition to his acting career, David is also a regular composer and technologist, and is currently developing signature productions. He lives with his wife in Southern California and has three children.
