David is the co-founder and co-host of Acquired. He too used to be a venture capitalist before realizing he had way more fun making Acquired. He holds an undergraduate degree in French Literature from Princeton and an MBA from Stanford, both of which ended up way more useful for Acquired than he ever anticipated. (Something about only connecting the dots looking backward…) He lives in San Francisco with his wife, two young daughters and goldendoodle/research assistant.
