David has been on the leading edge of coaching for over 17 years and has relationship as his primary focus, whether that is relationship with self, relationship with others or even relationship with a project.

“I believe that relationships develop people into their fullest potential and that how you “BE” in relationship is where the power lies. Shifting into and sustaining a new way of being is not easy to do on one’s own, so I coach clients to bring consciousness and intentionality to their relationships and work in the world.”
