With a deep passion for Spanish culture and music, David has studied extensively with Andalusian Flamenco maestros in various cities throughout southern Spain, particularly in his favorite city of Granada. He also holds a Classical Guitar degree in Music Performance from Northeastern University in Illinois, where he was mentored by Dr. Brian Torosian.
