David is a graduate student in Electrical Engineering. He has curled for a number of years out of the Mayflower Curling Club in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada, where he (supposedly) lead teams to victory several nights a week. David has skipped the MIT team at the college curling national championship the last 2 years, taking the blame for their 0-3 finish 2 years ago and naturally receiving no credit for the 2-1 effort this past year. Victory has been promissed in 2011. Aside from curling, like any true Canadian, his passion is hockey. David has developed into an avid Bruins fan since his arrival in Boston and can be found at most home games... that is when he's not actually out playing hockey or curling. When the ice melts, David resorts to playing pretentious sports like golf and tennis.

Phil is Canadian.
