  We discuss finite density configurations on probe D-branes, in the presence
of worldvolume fermions. To this end we consider a phenomenological model whose
bosonic sector is governed by the DBI action, and whose charged sector is
purely fermionic. In this model, we demonstrate the existence of a compact
worldvolume embedding, stabilized by a Fermi surface on the D- brane. The
finite density state in the boundary QFT is a Fermi-like liquid. We comment on
the possibility of realizing non-Fermi liquids in this setup.
