Name (Age): David Tabushi (34) Current Residence: Grand Rapids, Michigan Occupation:  Mechanical Engineer Hobbies: Well first of all, I can play 3 instruments extremely well. The trumpet, piano, and saxophone. Then, I spend some of my free time every month taking the time to learn new languages. I can already speak 4 decently, those 4 being English, Spanish, German, and Swedish. I also thoroughly enjoy many outdoor activities, such as Hiking, Kayaking, and Snorkeling. What Do You Think The Most Difficult Part of SURVIVOR Will Be?: Obviously, you're going to have the physical portion of the game no doubt. You're living off of barely anything for 39 days, with maybe an occasional reward. However, I think the worst part for me will be the emotional effects of the game. It's going to be tough spending time away from my family. I live and breathe for my family, I have 6 animals back home that I'm going to miss, as well as my wife and a 1 year old son. Previous SURVIVOR You Are Most Like: I'm personally believe that I'm somewhat of a hybrid here. I think I'll be a mix of Joe Anglim and Tony Vlachos. I'm going to be very good physically, and also have a good social game. However, my strongest asset will be my strategical ability. I think every single decision through, and I'll be able to backstab people when needed, but still be forgiven.

Do You Have a Strategy for Winning the Game?: My strategy is to start of in the pre-merge somewhat quiet. However, as the game progresses I'll have to become more aggressive with my moves. I'll use the pre-merge time to secure myself a loyal alliance that can help me get to the end. However, I'm always going to be able to flip on someone if I feel that they're a threat to me. My plan is to be friends with everyone, no matter which alliance they're in. That way, everyone feels comfortable around me, and won't be as hurt if I have to betray them. I also would like to use the meatshield strategy, having one or two bigger threats than me in the game, and one of them in my alliance.
