Dave is a native Coloradan who never thought that he would run for public office. He started his career as an educator, teaching math, science, and technology at Heath Junior High in Greeley for 24 years. He then went on to teach at CU Denver for another decade, and worked in the private tech sector for about 4 years.
I am the only candidate in the race to have signed the Clean Campaign Pledge. I have a history of winning campaigns on hard work, dedicated volunteers, and standing for what I believe in. One of those values is running a clean and honest campaign. I signed the Colorado Democratic Party’s Clean Campaign Pledge early in my campaign because I wanted voters to focus on the issues that matter most, not petty fights between members of our own party. You can read the pledge and find out which candidates have signed it here.
