Profile

Guided by principles of good practice.

David began his career at PLAZM Design, where he worked on high-profile projects for globally recognized brands such as Adidas, Jantzen, and Will Vinton Studios. Building on this foundation, he has developed a distinguished career leading design initiatives for prestigious leisure and lifestyle brands, including Four Seasons (Hotels, Resorts, and Branded Residences), Aman, Rosewood Hotels (and Branded Residences), the Island of Lanai, and The Ritz-Carlton Reserve. With keen insight into the ultra-high-net-worth market segments and a deep appreciation for geographic and cultural nuance, David is dedicated to creating and stewarding brands, environments, and experiences that resonate.

Having worked extensively throughout the United States, Europe, the Caribbean, South and Central America, and the Pacific Rim, David has garnered accolades and awards from prestigious organizations such as the International Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences (The Webbys), the American Advertising Federation (AAF), Interactive Media Awards (IMA), and The Nationals (NAHB). 

After completing his service in the United States Coast Guard, David attended Parsons School of Design in Paris, France, and later earned his BFA in Design from the Pacific Northwest College of Art (PNCA) in Portland, Oregon. He remains committed to advancing his expertise through continuing education at ArtCenter College of Design.

Currently based in Los Angeles, David offers a wide range of comprehensive design services that span both digital and traditional media and currently accepts projects on a selective, project-by-project basis.
