About
David, Civic’s Co-Founder & Co-CEO, began his career as NYC Park’s first-ever sponsorship + partnership lead and then as Director of the NYC Parks Marketing & Special Events Division, where he saw a vital need to connect public and private institutions to address local and national issues and advance civic life. At NYC Parks, David pioneered the model for public/private partnerships, securing tens of millions of dollars in corporate funding from HBO, Disney, LEGO, Speedo and others to support free, city-produced and commercial programming and amenities, including public concerts, citywide sports tournaments, citywide and neighborhood large-scale holiday celebrations, community recreation, televised franchises, playground programming and much more for the 5-boroughs.
