Thanks to meeting a lovely lady from Port Talbot at University, Grimsby-born David Melkevik has been living in St Mellons and, now, Llanrumney for over 13 years. A business analyst who works at a local university, David enjoys in his spare-time scriptwriting and has had his work performed on BBC Radio and BBC Wales.

Outside of work David enjoys boxing (badly) and loves watching his sons play for Llanrumney FC. Up the Llan!
David is over the moon to be part of Common Wealth as it is an opportunity to bring the community together through theatre and establish a real legacy that will benefit the young people of the area.
