While at UVa, David was involved in several organizations including the Pre-Dental Society and the Charlottesville and University Symphony Orchestra, where he met his wife Jessica. David attended Virginia Commonwealth University/Medical College of Virginia School of Dentistry, receiving his DDS degree and graduating cum laude. While in dental school, David enjoyed his experiences volunteering with the Missions of Mercy Project where he provided much-needed dental care in Southwest Virginia. He also enjoyed playing club flag football and basketball with his classmates.
After completing dental school, David and Jessica moved to Fairfax where David started practicing dentistry with his father, Dr. William Babington. He and his father together provided care for patients in Northern Virginia for 13 years.

David enjoys challenging himself in the numerous races he has completed, including several Ironman Triathlons, Spartan obstacle course races, Ragnar Relays, RunDisney Dopey Challenges, and many marathons, and his family loves to cheer him on.
