David Cardell
Chief Executive Officer

When David started 1-800-TAXI-USA in 2005, he was working as a valet attendant and real estate loan officer in Long Beach, California. The idea for 1-800-TAXI-USA came to him when his car broke down on the freeway in San Diego. David quickly discovered that there was no easy way to find a taxi, and since that day, he has set out to make the search for a taxi fast and easy. David holds an undergraduate degree in economics from the University of California, Berkeley.

As the chief Executive Officer of 1-800-TAXI-USA, David is responsible for the overall leadership and direction of the company. His determination in this end has proven instrumental in the company's ascent to the top of taxi industry marketing services and its appeal to thousands of taxi service providers throughout the nation. This website, as well as the company's many advertising programs, which appear nationally, showcase his creative vision. Even more impressive are the uplifting and socially responsible ideals that inspire David's leadership of the company, and his personal commitment to providing an easy and viable alternative to driving under the influence.
