About David
I'm a derivatives lawyer. I've worked for MetLife, Citibank, the UN and several law firms. Currently at the CFTC. I like football; I watch MI every Saturday and the Cowboys, Saints, Jets and Giants every weekend. I used to live in Manhattan. I have 2 pet parrotlets. I went to MI undergrad and Syracuse for law school and my MBA in finance. My step-brother is a former Marine, and I've always thought the military is cool. I love war movies and like to go shooting at the range from time to time.
