David Sparrow grew up as an Army dependent living abroad in Europe and Africa, as well as several states in the U.S. This exposed him to many cultures and customs allowing him to become proficient in speaking German and Arabic. He became a Jacksonville, Alabama, transplant when his father retired from the United States Army.
David attended Gadsden State Community College where he studied Business Management. Given his knowledge in Business Management, his work was concentrated in the areas of sales and service. He spent almost 20 years working as both a federal contractor and a federal employee for the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. His area of expertise was in Government procurement and logistics. While employed there he was exposed to and participated in training first responders and military servicemen and women in Emergency Management, WMD’s, Hazardous Materials, Terrorism and Preparedness.
Following his work for the U.S. government, David worked in senior management as the Safety Director for Southeastern Utility Services based in Jacksonville, Alabama. He assumed a vital role when deployed on short notice in support of disaster response and line clearance. This was performed for various state power authorities in order to restore power for thousands of residents. He responded to several ice storms as well as Hurricanes Ian and Nicole. In this position David learned to create and promote a culture of safety for his employees, as well as employing a sense of urgency when necessary.
David resides in Jacksonville, Alabama, with his wife and three children. He enjoys spending time with his family, studying and collecting artifacts from various historical conflicts across the globe, tinkering with his 1968 Chevrolet Chevelle, and studying and collecting weapons from different countries.
