David shares his home with an adorable and very demanding puggle named Jackie, who rescued him at a very low point in his life. He works long hours to maintain Jackie in the lifestyle to which she has grown accustomed. And he wouldn't have it any other way.David is a proud board member of Iron Crow Theatre, Baltimore's only queer theatre company, and writes for DC Metro Theater Arts.
