Who Am I?
Hi! I'm Dave
Over the last 25 years, I have worked in almost every aspect of marketing from a production designer to the owner of my own studio and marketing company. I currently freelance providing pro bono services in designing/developing web sites and web applications, photography work, print marketing materials, brand development, and administration of several business social media accounts. Virtually all my work is geared toward veteran business startups, charity originations, and non-profits.
I have had some incredible opportunities to be part of some amazing teams with work that has been recognized with several ADDY Awards and a couple of WEBBY's. My photography has been published in numerous national and international magazines as well as a number of showings throughout the US. This is my passion - well that and these incredible mini-crumble biscuit bites from this little place call Capistrano's´ - the best just the best!
