Research interests include decolonization within the Canadian context, particularly the space where Indigenous and settler literatures interact with issues like multiculturalism, reconciliation, and sovereignty. In the area of Creative Writing, I enjoy exploring how politics and aesthetics merge to disrupt or confirm apprehensions of reality. David has published poetry, journalism, and books on the rock band U2, and teaching in Japan, for which he won the Japan Festival Award for "furthering the understanding of Japanese culture." He is currently at work on a novel about his family's experiences as Doukhobors.
David holds a PhD in English from the University of Alberta, a Masters in Fine Arts from UBC, and a Masters in Journalism and Media Studies and a Masters in Applied Linguistics from the University of Hong Kong.
