Throughout high school and college Dave played with musicians that focused on a wide range of musical styles, this significantly broadened his musical prowess.

After Classical Music training at UCSB Dave elected to graduate with a degree in Communication and Philosophy. He officially began teaching privately in 2003 and soon decided to pursue a formal education in music. Dave enrolled in the G.I.T. Degree program at Musicians Institute in the fall of 2004.
