Info | David Wilkerson is the son of Sergeant First Class Richard and Helen Wilkerson and was born in Fort Dix, New Jersey. He gained his love of public service from his father, Richard, who after retiring from the Army, started and operated the John Addison Wilkerson (JAWS) Memorial Boys Club in Virginia, named in memory of his own father.
A product of public schools, David was an Eastman Kodak Scholar and graduated summa cum laude from North Carolina Agricultural & Technical State University with a degree in Accounting.
After graduation, David moved to Atlanta to begin his professional career at the Big 4 accounting firm of Deloitte & Touche. He moved to Cobb County and earned his CPA credentials in 1991. Currently, David is a Project Consultant at the international firm of Resources Global Professionals. His clients have included those in the airline, financial services, manufacturing, telecom, technology, and real estate industries.
David’s commitment to public service has continued throughout his career. His volunteer activities have included Junior Achievement, Osborne Community Coalition, Russell Elementary PTA and Dad’s Club, Cobb Schools Foundation, serving on local non profit boards, and serving as an Elder at his church. He speaks to elementary and high school students about the importance of education, ethics, and opportunities in accounting.
David has been active in Georgia politics for nearly 20 years. He has volunteered on numerous campaigns and served in various leadership positions with the Democratic Party, where he recently served as Cobb County Democratic Party Chairman. David was the first African American to serve in this position in Cobb County. He currently serves on the State Committee for the Democratic Party of Georgia.
