I'm proud to collaborate with these awesome brands.

Hi, I'm Dave.
Owner. Founder. Developer. YouTube creator. Digital Obsessionist.
I've been building for the web since 2004 — from global agency work to solo projects. Now I help developers, teams, and digital businesses move faster with hands-on tools, tech consultancy, and training through content.
Through my YouTube channel and newsletter, I share practical insights, product deep dives, and fresh strategies — all with clarity, curiosity, and a bit of fun.
