David had an unexpected start to his career in acting. He shared this story about it on his website: I began my acting career as a child in Charleston, SC. My mom took me to an open call audition for a play to see how auditions worked. When we got there, they asked me to sign in - I wrote down my info- figuring it was a mailing list for future auditions - but actually I had just signed up to do a cold read audition while I was there. We went in the theater, took a seat and watched several auditions for about a half hour. Then my mom and I decided it was time to go, but just as we were getting up from our sets, they called my name up to audition. I was surprised because I was not prepared, nor knew what to do, but I went up on stage anyway. I told them a little about myself and read a few lines. They thanked me for my time and we left. My mom and I laughed about the whole experience all day, not thinking anything would come of it. But a few weeks later I got a letter saying I had been cast in the ensemble! I was thrilled and enjoyed the entire experience. And I that is how I unexpectedly started my career in acting.
During the pandemic in 2020, he was cast as an actor for a film competing in the 48 Hour Film Project - but the director and team had to pull out of the competition at the last minute. Undeterred, David decided to make a film all by himself in just 2 days. He wrote, directed, shot, edited and starred in the film: "Love Yourself" - the short film won 3 awards in the competition and then arrived on the film festival circuit where it won an additional 9 awards.
