Dave enjoyed cooking on the show so much that he opened his own campus catering service.

During his senior year, he was discovered by Amanda Hesser of The New York Times and was prominently featured in a front-page article that appeared in the "Dining In" section of the newspaper. This break proved fortuitous, as Dave soon landed a book deal from Hyperion Books for his first cookbook, Young and Hungry: Making the Most of Fresh and Affordable Food.

Dave currently lives in New York, NY and works as a personal chef.
