DAVID KAUFMAN
David started swimming 15 years ago and joined our Excel swim team in 2005.
Analytical and inquisitive, David is constantly striving to improve his
technique,
power and speed. He loves swimming apparatus and has been affectionately called
"Inspector Gadget" by his teammates. David cannot wait for the weather to get
warmer
so he can swim in the open water. He enjoys competing in meets and open water
races.
David graduated Queens College with a BA in mathematics. On weekdays David
works in Manhattan in his family business. On weekends, he is a ritual committee
volunteer at his synagogue. David has experience mountain biking and trail
running,
along with a background in martial arts.
David and his wife Shani have four children: Eliana, Michal, Samuel, and Yishai.
