The Story You Probably Didn’t Know About Me…
Here’s something many North Richland Hills residents may not know about me—and it’s one of the biggest reasons I’m so passionate about helping others through chiropractic care.
I was an extremely active kid. I ran track, raced motorcycles, and played just about every sport I could. And I wasn’t just involved—I was good at them. What makes that surprising is… I had asthma.
But here’s where it gets interesting: I had no idea I had asthma.
How is that even possible?
Well, when I was just a year old, I was diagnosed with severe asthma—the kind that kept my parents up at night taking turns to make sure I was still breathing. I was on regular medications and breathing treatments, but nothing was really working.
At the time, my dad was a chiropractic student at Texas Chiropractic College in Pasadena. One day, my mom—who had zero background in chiropractic—said to my dad:
“If this chiropractic stuff is really so great, why don’t we take David to a chiropractor and see if it helps?”
So they did.
And after just a few adjustments, things started to change. I was able to come off the medications. I could breathe freely. And before long, I was competing in sports without any restrictions.
But here’s the wild part:
I didn’t even learn that part of my story until March 2003—two years after I became a chiropractor myself.
Learning that chiropractic care gave me the chance to live a full, active life as a child changed everything for me. It became my personal mission to help more people experience what I did—without needing to rely on medications or just “learn to live with it.”
Today, I stay active with 1–2 soccer games a week and I still compete in taekwondo. Some of my highlights include:
🥇 2010 Texas State Sparring Champion
🥇 2012 World Champion (Men’s 40–49, 1st Degree Black Belt)
🥈 2019 World Runner-Up (Men’s 50–59, 1st Degree Black Belt)
🥇 2020 World Champion (Men’s 50–59, 1st Degree Black Belt)
Yep—I’m getting older… but I’m not slowing down! 😊
