Before entering the toy industry, David had the hardest job in the world. He was selling Exxon oil to Alaskan fishermen after the Valdez spill and he wasn’t very successful. He escaped that and broke into the toy industry with University Games eventually rising to become their Vice President of Sales. After 12 years, he left University Games to co-found Goliath’s North American office in 2008 with his soon-to-be friend, Adi Golad. During his time at Goliath, the company has grown from under $40,000 in annual sales to become one of the top 3 toy companies in North America.  In his role, David oversees global product development for gaming and strategic and day to day management of Goliath’s business in North America.  He holds a Master’s in Business Degree from Duke’s Fuqua School of Business and a Bachelor’s of Science in Mechanical Engineering from Southern Methodist University. His hobbies include board games, paddle boarding, tennis and very short triathlons.
