David has performed at Minnesota’s 10,000 Laughs Comedy Festival three times, as well as the Colorado Springs Comedy Festival, the Fargo Comedy Festival, and the Loons on the Lake Comedy Festival. David is loved by audiences far and wide for his self-deprecating, painfully relatable takes on family, relationships, and the inescapable anxieties that come with living in today’s world, and loves to interact with his audiences to make each show completely unique.

On-screen, David has won two regional Emmys for his sketch television show “Nate on Drums,” and has since starred in several award-winning online videos and TV commercials, including recent spots for Slumberland, Robert Half and Panchero’s Mexican Grill. In addition to his on-stage comedy work, David is also a talented magician, having performed highly entertaining comedic magic for 15 years before focusing solely on comedy. No matter the audience, David will dig into his most neurotic, embarrassing stories to make people laugh.
