With a rich family legacy in the real estate industry, David grew up immersed in the business.

David earned his degree from Syracuse University’s S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications, and lives in Port Washington with his wife, Dawn—a lifelong local—and their four children, who attend schools from elementary through high school. As a hands-on dad, David stays active in the community and enjoys traveling, watching the Knicks, and rocking out to his favorite band, Foo Fighters.
