Khalid David is Founder and CEO of TracFlo, a company with a predictive financial management platform that is empowering America’s contractors.
Originally from the Bronx, Khalid was born into a family of tradesmen with a deep connection to his Afro-Caribbean roots. So it’s no surprise that, even with education from Morehouse, Columbia, and MIT, Khalid ended up in the construction industry. And it was those experiences that opened his eyes to the opportunity to better track the dynamic cost changes happening on today’s construction sites. And so TracFlo was born. Khalid is a passionate speaker and advocate, and has won competitions at MIT, Harvard, and Stanford business schools.
Khalid has a great story, you’ll want to listen in.

- representing the Bronx
- His Saint Kitts and Nevis heritage
- Emerging from college during the Great Recession
