Besonderheiten

While performing voice-overs fills David with sheer and utter delight, he can also be found playing tennis any chance he gets. As a being of creative energy, David also has an enthusiastic passion for art and paints in a variety of mediums.

David’s most recent and significant accomplishment and as he puts it, “the best gift I ever gave myself”, was completing his graduate studies in Spiritual Psychology at the University of Santa Monica, which he feels brings an unparalleled level of depth, not only to his voice-over performances, but his life.
