David’s artistic practice moves fluidly between sculpture, technology, and social consciousness. Drawing on his background in electrical engineering, he creates illuminated, kinetic works that transform circuitry and material into meditations on humanity’s relationship with progress and nature.

As a partner at Hotel El Ganzo, an art hotel in Baja California, Mexico, David has helped cultivate the property into a globally recognized destination for creativity and sustainability. Through its acclaimed Artist-in-Residence program, hundreds of international artists have created immersive, site-specific works that connect art, environment, and community. He also serves as an advisor to the Burning Man Project, supporting its global initiatives that unite art, technology, and collective imagination.

Beyond the studio, David channels his commitment to human and planetary wellbeing through entrepreneurship and investment. As Managing Partner at Draft Ventures, he has backed over 80 early-stage companies. His career has spanned leadership roles at Side Inc. (valued at $2.5B) and Livefyre (acquired by Adobe), and early work with Greycroft, a $2B venture capital fund.

His path began as the founder of ArtExtend—a virtual gallery amplifying emerging artists from developing regions—marking the start of a lifelong pursuit to merge creativity, technology, and social impact.
