David Francisco
David Francisco is an accomplished singer/songwriter, musician, producer, recording engineer, and spinal cord injury, survivor. At just 24 years old, David’s life was forever changed when a distracted driver ran a red light and broadsided him while he was riding his bicycle. The impact left him instantly paralyzed from the waist down, with doctors telling him he would never walk again. But David refused to accept this fate.
For over a year, David worked tirelessly through grueling physical therapy, pushing his body and spirit beyond the limits. Against all odds, David defied expectations and regained the ability to walk—something that was once thought impossible. More importantly, David has found a purpose in his suffering by sharing his story with others. His story of resilience and hope reached a global audience in 2018 when it was featured on American Idol. The segment captivated millions, garnering over 80 million views worldwide, and has become an inspiration to many.
