David Brennan
Where were you born? At Shoalhaven Hospital in Nowra.
Were you named after anyone? Not that I am aware of.
Which of your accomplishments are you most proud of? Progressing my career in hospitality to club management roles in a relatively short amount of time in the industry.
What historical moment stands out most in your memory? The 2019 bush fires in NSW. I remember walking outside of work at the time, on a Saturday night with virtually no customers inside, and the sky was an eerie black colour, and oddly quiet.
What’s the single best piece of advice you’ve ever received? Don’t be disheartened by trying to change the world overnight, and not being able to. Make positive, small steps and you will look back in the future and see the success.
What’s the greatest risk you’ve ever taken? Leaving my previous club, and moving to Parkes, to be the General Manager of the Leagues Club.
What are the three things you would take to a deserted island? A fishing rod, matches and a (full) water bottle!
If you had to spend $10,000 today, how would you spend it? I would book flights to see my best friend who moved to the USA two years ago.
When are you happiest? Relaxing on the outdoor lounge with a cold beer in hand.
