“David is the Phil Jackson of acting coaches.

He inspires greatness in others with a calm and an ease but knows when to push someone if it’s necessary.

He doesn’t have a one size fits all approach to acting. His receptivity and empathy as a human being is his brilliance as a teacher and a mentor. And I feel very lucky to have him in my life.

“What makes David so exceptional as a teacher is that he has a deep understanding of the actor. He is one of the few theatre practitioners that I have ever seen who truly understands what an actor needs.
