David was appointed to the Board of Directors of Christie Gardens in April 2022 following thirty-five plus years of service in two similar senior facilities; either as a volunteer Board Member or as a Senior Management Executive. He began his career as a professional accountant working in the retail industry for private, national, and public companies – rising to the position of Executive Vice President for North America.
