David Alexander is a passionate actor and writer with nearly a decade of experience dedicated to storytelling and performance. Born and raised in Queens, New York, to Guyanese parents, David grew up in a Christian household where faith and creativity were deeply intertwined. His love for storytelling began at twelve, writing stories as a form of expression and exploration.
At fifteen, David moved to Canada, where he completed high school and later earned a diploma in Theater Arts. In 2015, feeling inspired to deepen his relationship with God, he realized that his passion for the arts was more than just a hobby—it was a calling. This revelation drove him to pursue acting and writing wholeheartedly.
Since then, David has worked on various film sets in different capacities, gaining valuable experience and honing his craft. His empathy and desire to help others—traits that once earned him the nickname “Doctor Phil” for his willingness to listen and offer guidance—are woven into his creative work. Family-oriented and deeply compassionate, David uses stories and acting as powerful outlets to connect with others and share meaningful messages.
