Hi! I’m David.
I’m an auctioneer, artist, producer, and consultant.
I have worked professionally as an auctioneer and emcee for the last 10 years, alongside a career in nonprofits and the arts.
It was an honor to serve as Executive Director of the Delridge Neighborhoods Development Association for over 11 years, a multi-service neighborhood nonprofit where I led affordable housing, youth arts and environmental programs, and DNDA’s amazing Youngstown Cultural Arts Center.
My work as an actor, improviser, comedian, singer, and entertainer thrives through collaboration. I have written and produced full scale musical theater productions, working with writers, directors, producers, and other magic makers to delight audiences.
You can find me performing and teaching improvisational theater with Unexpected Productions at the Market Theatre in Seattle, where I have been an ensemble member since 2012.
Teamwork and collaboration are at the core of everything I do. I have coached sports for youth and adults, and I’m proud to be a 4-time national champion ultimate frisbee player. It was also an honor to be part of the first years of coaching with Ultimate Peace.
I love running around outdoors, both on the frisbee field and in the Pacific Northwest wilderness.
Playing and coaching in the USA and abroad has informed my team-focused and strategic approach, from the frisbee field to the board room.
When we work together, everybody wins.
