David Caulk: My family and I joined the Chestnut Hill community in March 2020 after relocating from Chicago. My spouse, two lively boys - ages 5 and 3 - and I fell in love with the natural and built environment and the area’s eclectic character. My professional passion lies in pursuing common goals among diverse stakeholders. I earned a BA from The University of Pennsylvania and an MBA from The University of Chicago Booth School of Business. Throughout my career, I have worked with local and national governments, nonprofits, Fortune-500 companies, startups, academics, and entrepreneurs. Starting my career in financial management for the federal government, I soon moved to Chicago to build and run a boutique consulting firm called The Greatest Good. We helped clients run field experiments and design choice architectures to improve high-stakes decision-making.  Currently, I am focused on raising my boys, independent consulting, and community-building through various projects, including building a library for the J.S. Jenks School. I admire the mission and recent work of the Chestnut Hill Community Association, and I am eager to collaborate with neighbors on initiatives that bring Chestnut Hill together. I look forward to joining the CHCA Board of Directors and leveraging both my professional and personal interests to further enrich the Chestnut Hill community.
