 David enjoyed two decades as an entrepreneur in the services and technology sectors before co-founding Our Future Now. Inspired by long journeys at sea on America’s Tall Ship the Coast Guard Barque Eagle, he spent seven years as a business coach and motivational counselor. As a natural implementor, he draws on his deep experience in team building, training and technology.
He is accomplished as a project manager with an emphasis on business
development, marketing and promotion. Believing that, “it takes a
village,” he has invested his life in service to the community as a
builder and guide. David has donated his services building homes,
classrooms, missions and large scale art installations.
In his role with Our Future Now, he and Michael Kang (The String Cheese
Incident) are working with events ranging from small gatherings to
large-scale music festivals to promote Green practices and use art in
those venues to teach the principles and techniques of sustainable
living. This year’s undertakings will include Green Apple Festival
(San Francisco), Rothbury Music Festival, Lollapalooza, and Burning Man.
Panel: Greening Events
The intention to make an event more green raises some interesting questions and challenges. How do you put it into practice and get “buy in” from other stakeholders? How do you communicate what is happening to attendees? Can the event yield a residual impact by inspiring others? This astute group will answer these and other questions.
