Fluent in both English and Spanish, he spent the first part of his life growing up in Spain and Portugal. As a teenager, he moved to the United States and currently resides in Miami, Florida. Between the ages of twelve and sixteen, David experienced a series of several life-altering paranormal events.

In 2003, David started a paranormal meet-up group in Omaha, Nebraska. The popularity of the group quickly led to the formation of Paranormal Research and Investigative Studies Midwest (PRISM). As of 2019, PRISM Paranormal Research is comprised of 5 teams across the United States, with an additional team starting in Chile in 2023..

David currently works as the Director of PRISM South Florida and has made several TV appearances in both the United States and Latin America. Networks include NBC, History Channel, Hulu, Univision, Telemundo, Mega TVAmérica TeVe, and Mira TV. David also works as an official ghost tour guide for Miami-Dade County, hosting events at several haunted South Florida locations including the Deering Estate, Coral Castle, the Gold Coast Railroad Museum, the Coral Castle Museum, the Cape Florida Lighthouse, the Villa Paula Mansion, and Thalatta Estate. In early 2016, David was the first paranormal researcher to investigate on the island nation of Cuba.
