Coach David joined Bounce in March 2022, shortly after welcoming his newborn son, Killian with his partner, Tammy.
David initially acquired a degree in Liberal Arts – starting his career as an elementary school teacher, working with Kindergardneners while simultaneously studying child development.
During a break from teaching, David worked for Jewish Family Services – planning and implementing the Holocaust Survivor Program for two years, where he provided critical tools to help survivors and their families.
Making a welcome return to the education sector, David joined Bounce to combine his passion of working with children with his love of sports and making a positive impact on our youth.
When David isn’t changing diapers, he enjoys running, going to live music concerts and riding his collection of classic motorcycles.

What’s the best advice you’ve ever been given? My Grandfather always told me ever since I was a child, “If you truly Love what you do, you’ll never work a day in your life”
