David values integrity, reliability, respect, trust, and open communication in his life.

In his spare time, David spends quality time with his daughter and wife, and once they go to bed, enjoys playing video games, playing percussion instruments, playing tabletop games, and trying out and hacking technologies. His latest ongoing projects and accomplishments include creating a soon to be Windows Store application with a friend to help track licensure progression, implementing a retroPi gaming computer, automating his home with using Z-Wave and ZigBee with Lua, and dockerize different game servers so he and his friends enjoy playing together.

On the non-geeky side, David is attempting to learn Japanese when he can find time.
