Elected Experience: State Representative (2013-Present)

Other Professional Experience: David works as a law clerk / paralegal and is studying to become an attorney. He works at Sadler Ladenburg in downtown Tacoma.

Education: Central Washington University, Bachelor of Arts in Political Science and Bachelor of Arts in Geography and Land Studies; Washington State Bar Association (APR 6) Law Clerk Program (In Progress) - this is an apprenticeship model rather than law school.

Community Service: David served as a Big Brother for Big Brothers Big Sisters. David served on the board of Project U (a United Way sponsored program designed to increase volunteerism).

Statement: David is running for re-election. He fights to fund our schools, protect the vulnerable, and make sure we have an economy that works for all and not just the wealthy few.

He passed a first-in-the-nation law that established the “Child Rescue Fund” that funds law enforcement investigations of child abusers, a law that punishes felons who are using our civil legal system from behind bars to harass their victims, and a law that sets up a process to expunge records of those who were wrongfully convicted. David is a leader who is getting results.
