1. He Works In Sales

2. He’s A New Year’s Baby
On one hand, being born on a holiday can be a cool conversation starter or fun fact for an ice breaker activity, but on the other it means that your special day always ends up getting outshined. As a New Year’s baby, this is something David can relate to. He was born on January 1, 1990.
3. He Can Cry On Command

Staying active is one of the most important things in David’s life. He loves to work out and has been doing CrossFit for the last several years. However, the gym isn’t the only place where he likes to burn calories. He also likes to do outdoor work outs such as running and hiking.
5. He Believes In The Importance Of Representation
It’s no secret that people of color are widely underrepresented on Big Brother. In the show’s 20 year history, there has yet to be a black winner. David hopes to change that.

He credits CrossFit with helping him learn more about his body while introducing him to some great people along the way.
9. Lots If Viewers Are Ready To See Him Leave The House
David is still hoping to win the all-star season, but apparently there are lots of viewers who would rather see him go home now. Several fans of the show have tweeted about the fact that they can’t believe David is still in the house and they’re hoping that won’t be the case for much longer. One fan said, “Every year we joke we should have a Big Brother season of “first-outs” to give them another (fairer?) chance. Thank you David for correcting us and making sure we never think that this is a good idea ever again.”
10. He’s A Georgia State Alum
