David was born and raised here in Utah. He grew with hopes of becoming a professional snowboarder and stumbled into tennis along the way. While David was attending Snow Canyon High School in St. George he decided tennis would be a great way to spend the off season. David went out for the high school team where Tyler Weekes of the VBTC was his coach. After observing and learning the game of tennis at the Vic Braden Tennis College David decided to pursue a career in tennis. He is a strong believer in the strokes and overall tennis game taught at VBTC.
David currently is a student at Dixie State College where he is pursuing a degree in exercise science. He still finds time to snowboard during the winter, and golf during the summer. Other activities David enjoys include travel, wakeboarding, basketball, and rock climbing.
