Dave was born and raised in North Tonawanda, NY. He
currently lives right up the road from the Niagara Sheets plant. He has 3
children aged 9, 15, and 17. Dave served in the United States Army for 14
years. He was a driver and transported things from fuel and ammo to Humvees and
tanks. He did five tours of duty, four in Iraq and one in Kosovo. On one tour
he was driving a truck and was blown up by enemy forces. He suffered injuries
to his face, including shrapnel in his eyes. He was able to recover fully, and
continue his driving career. When Dave was Honorably discharged in 2010, he got
off the road for awhile, going back to college and working in a rail yard.
Missing the freedom of the road, he got back in the cab and worked at various
different companies before joining JB Hunt. On his off-time Dave enjoys being
outside and fishing. He is working on buying a nice boat with a Cuddy cabin to
get out on the lake.
