David was invited to speak about the challenges and opportunities of pursuing a career that tries to balance between professional practice and academia. Hosted by Esther Choi. Office Hours describes itself as follows:
“How Office Hours Works
We transmit professional and experiential knowledge to BIPOC creative practitioners from BIPOC creative practitioners in a collective setting, free of charge. We request that all attendees turn their cameras on for our events and arrive accountable to the group dynamic. Our group mentoring format allows us to practice the values of multi-racial and multi-ethnic solidarity, empathy, and generosity—rather than the tenets of singularity, extraction, and competition—as powerful social tools for imagining how we wish to live and work together.”
