Biography
David learned the value of hard work early. His mother opened a successful Italian restaurant, Mama Lucia’s, in Duncan, Oklahoma. David’s first job, at the age of nine, was bussing tables. David worked there through college, obtaining a customer service mindset that guides him today. David went on to purchase the family restaurant and operate it successfully for 15 years. David attended college on a music scholarship, eventually earning multiple Grammy and Emmy nominations for his talent at trumpet. Throughout his life, David has had the honor of playing our National Anthem at countless events, proudly representing his family who came from nothing and found the American dream in Oklahoma.
David loves our country and the conservative values that make our nation great. Only in America could the son of an immigrant rise to become an award-winning artist, successful business owner and elected county servant.
