David was born on January 24th, 1967. He grew up in Ballwin, Missouri, attended Lafayette high school and was a TKE at Truman University. Growing up, he was a competitive swimmer, a swim coach, and a lifeguard. Dave had a deep love and passion for music of all genres; he played guitar and wrote music of his own. Dave was an entrepreneur at heart and was full of creativity! Beyond marketing, he used his insightful wisdom to write the book "The Whole Dude", not only to foster kindness but as testament of his giving spirit. Dave was very spiritually connected throughout the community and formed many incredible relationships as the founder of AwakenSTL. Dave was a deep thinker and was a forever student seeking the philosophy of life. In addition to his spiritual depth, there was also a gentle and playful nature to him. Dave liked playing poker with family and friends and hosted the DASA poker tournament for many years. Dave enjoyed traveling, seeing live music, and watching movies with his girls. At the core of his being was his commitment to his family. He was an extremely dedicated and present father to his two daughters, always offering a listening ear, an open heart, and reassuring divine wisdom. Dave was the ultimate dreamer, believer, and optimist - not only for his own life, but as a guiding light for those around him. He will be deeply missed by all of those who love him.
