After graduating, Rooklin shifted to the University of Colorado where he built his career as a research technician in the Josef Michl Lab, while at the same time accelerating his studies at the Merck Pharmaceutical Company as a research intern in the Cardiovascular Disease Department. This company is one of the largest pharmaceuticals in the world and is listed on ‘Fortune 500’ along with its high annual revenue.

The victory persuaded him launch his own company ”Redesign Science” in 2017, which focuses on developing drugs for potential diseases, and continues to grow over the years.

Neither David nor Glazer has revealed much about their relationship, and it’s not fully known when they crossed paths and started dating. However, in several instances, some beans have been spilled.

Regarding the topic of unusual pairing of people from two different career goals, in the “Live With Kelly and Ryan” show, the comedian Glazer reported her first encounter with the not-so-comic David backstage at Hannibal Buress comedy night in Washington Square Park,’ I met him after FX passed [on Broad City] and before Comedy Central picked up the show. I was very humbled. He’s in science, so he doesn’t know comedy. We met in Washington Square Park, and we just made eyes, and it was like, ‘damn!’ ‘

It can be surmised that they’ve been in a relationship since at least June 2013, because around that time a photo of Rooklin was posted on Glazer’s Instagram account with the caption,’ I love him.’

Also in August 2013, a photo of Rooklin with her brother was posted, where she refers to the duo as her boys.

An article about Ilana Glazer and her Broad City co-star Ai Jacobson was published by ”The New Yorker” in June 2014, where it was mentioned that Glazer is dating Rooklin. The magazine described Rooklin as ‘A trim clean-cut white man in his thirties, with glasses, Rooklin wore green cords, green sneakers, and a blue crewneck.’

After keeping their chemistry out of the spotlight for nearly three years, the scientist and the comedian tied the knot on 26th February 2017 in a private ceremony at New York’s City Hall, to which only a few family members and friends were invited.

The knowledge of the new beginning of their life came in to the public sphere when fellow comedian Phoebe Robinson and the writer/director Chioke Nassor posted their matrimonial photo on social media, and congratulated them for their best future.

Later Glazer herself confirmed the marriage on her Instagram account, by posting their photo with the caption, ‘We got married #whitelove. It’s reported that Ilana Glazer and David Rooklin went to Iceland for a honeymoon. Glazer still cherishes the time when they went for a drive, and enjoyed geothermal pools and spas in Iceland.

As of now, the couple is living apparently happily at their Brooklyn mansion in New York. They don’t have children – it’s unknown if they want any.

David has hazel eyes and brown hair, is 6ft 1in (1.85m) tall, and takes care of his figure with his weight being around 170lbs (78 kgs).

He had sleek long hair until 2018, but now as seen from his recent photographs, he’s had it cut.

David can speak Spanish, and his hobbies find their expression through art and photography. He is fond of drawing abstract sketches and he shares them with his followers; apparently he’s pretty good at it!

One of the notable attributes of Rooklin’s personality is that he is precise and succinct when using words, and like his wife Ilana Glazer, he has been outspoken on US political issues and activism.

David is a passionate advocate of equality of sexes, and is a feminist who is not hesitant to promote feminism publicly. In fact, once Ilana shared a picture on Instagram where he wore a cap that had the word ‘feminist’ emblazoned on it. ‘A real man ? … ?,’ she captioned the post.
