David was born in Minneapolis where he earned his bachelor’s degree in corrections and probation. After graduation, David played professional football with the Minnesota Pike, Minnesota Maulers, and in Canada. David’s years on the football field taught him many lessons, such as hard work, discipline, and collaboration. Since retiring from football, David has worn many hats, including firefighter and first responder, counselor for at-risk youth, and real estate professional. David knows that, like professional football, real estate requires study and a willingness to learn, individual effort, a strong team, and a great coaching staff. David uses this knowledge and the skills learned throughout his careers – including trust, adaptability, pride, and prioritizing the needs of others – to advocate, breakdown referrals barriers, and address the individual needs of each household he serves.
