In 2023 he took on the role of Pacific’s Officials Coordinator, which entailed organizing officials for Pacific’s numerous sanctioned meets. David was also an active member of the USMS Rules committee, regularly updating his fellow Pacific Masters delegates so they would be informed. Prior to becoming a Rules committee member, David served on the USMS Long Distance committee for a dozen years, and as the Pacific Open Water Chair for many years.
