David is the Chancellor and Prolocutor of the Temple of the Silver Star (totss.org), a Thelemic initiatory and educational organization. He is a long-standing member of O.T.O. and A.'.A.'. (onestarinsight.org), and has many years of experience training initiates in these traditions.

David’s popular “Living Thelema” podcasts (livingthelema.com) have appeared regularly since 2010, and his widely praised Living Thelema book was published in late 2013. His 2016 publication, The Winds of Wisdom, contains a full record of his scrying of the Thirty Enochian Aethyrs, and his latest work, co-edited with Lon Milo DuQuette, is Llewellyn’s Complete Book of Ceremonial Magick.

In addition to his work in magick and psychology, David is a composer and musician.
