Our team
David and his family: David’s wife, Kristin, and his son, Zachary.
Dave, Renaissance Man
Dave is the definition of a modern Renaissance Man. He does construction work on his house while tending to his vegetable garden. He makes artisanal ice cream, beer and cold brewed coffee. He’s a lover of art and anyone with an entrepreneurial spirit. His desire to lead and pragmatic sensibility make him the ultimate student of success.
Dave takes pride in rescuing animals and giving them a good home, and loves spending time with his dog, Molly, and his two cats, Dyson and Lilo. That is, of course, almost as much fun as spending time with his wife, Kristin, and their sons, Zachary and Benjamin.
Dave strongly values service to others, serving as past president of the Mosaic Lodge #194 F&AM and founder of the Mosaic Lodge Foundation of New Jersey. His charitable organization helps provide financial assistance to local charities. As if that wasn’t enough for a lifetime, in the spare time he has left, he is training for an IronMan. Dave gives the Energizer Bunny a run for his money!
