David Cardali

David Cardali is an actor who was born in Queens, New York. He fell in love with acting while studying on a pre-law track at University of San Diego. He took theatre and acting classes to fulfill his liberal arts requirements, and quickly found a love for it. He graduated from University of San Diego in 2021 with a degree in Psychology, and PPE (Philosophy, Politics, and Economics), while having also taken all the acting courses available as electives. David is grateful for being an alumni of Semester at Sea - 2019 - as he loves traveling and experiencing the world. In summer 2023, David played a lead role, 'Freddie', in John Patrick Shanley's 'The Portuguese Kid' at Hampton Theatre Company in New York. David is often acting in short films with young film makers, and is actively learning about all aspects of film making. In addition to acting David aspires to direct films he writes too, as he loves everything about storytelling through film. David's favorite characters to play are those that are unique, imaginative, and farther away from your 'regular guy.' David's most recent project is "The Flame of Syracuse" which filmed during August 2025 in Italy.
