David was born in Buffalo, New York, where he has lived his entire life. He attended Canisius College in Buffalo, where he met his life partner and soulmate, majoring in Biochemistry and participating in the All-College Honors Program along the way. David decided to stay home for medical school, attending the University of Buffalo, where he pursued interests in addiction medicine, street/outreach medicine, pulmonary & critical care medicine, and medical education. He enjoys spending time with his family, friends, and cats, who are the light of his life. Perhaps most importantly, he is a proud Bills and Sabres fan. His hobbies include playing and watching hockey, hiking with his fiancé, fishing with his brother, exploring new places (especially ice cream venues) with his mom, going to Sabres games with his dad, eating chicken wings, and spending time with friends. He also enjoys reading and listening to podcasts related to medicine and medical history. David is excited to be a member of the Vanderbilt/Nashville community and is looking forward to serving those in need in his new home.
