Dave was a member of Willis Re’s Analytics team based in New York. Dave provided ERM, risk  assessment and capital management advisory services to Willis Re’s insurance clients. He retired from Willis Re at the end of 2020.

In 2021, Dave was involved in two research projects.  Both projects were completed and papers published.  The projects are the COVID Mitigation Monitoring project which studied community mitigation activities in the US. Findings of the study can be found at the project website and the final paper is published at the SOA Research website.  The second project was the development of a paper titled “Modeling the Variety of Decision Making“.  One part of that paper was focused on discussion of an Adaptor risk mindset and that is summarized in “The Adaptor Emerges“.
