David was born in Auckland NZ to parents that emigrated from Western Samoa. When he was 17 the family moved to Brisbane, Australia and he has been Australian ever since. He is, however, still loyal to the All Blacks. 

He accepted Jesus as his Lord and Saviour when he was 21. He has been married to his wife Sokha for 12 years, and they have three children. He enjoys hanging out with people while eating a meal, listening to music, enjoying the outdoors and he said that he will learn to enjoy the cold. 

David is also serving as assistant pastor for the Glenorchy church alongside pastor Cosmin Dan-Marica, who also serves as pastor at Collinsvale church.
