Bio
Julie Steinhagen
Dave is an amazing writer. He brings strong concepts, brand voice, and an attention to detail to everything he works on, from a commercial script to an outdoor campaign to product copy. You want killer campaign ideas? Copy that brings a smile to your customer's face? An owner of your brand voice? A kick-ass shortstop for your company's softball team? Dave's your guy. I've created my best work (and won a few championships) with Dave as my teammate.
Katie Kravit
Dave is an amazing creative partner. He empowers his team and is a true leader. Dave writes exquisite and seemingly effortless copy, but he is so much more than that. He has a great strategic mind and prowess. Dave is very competitive and it drives him to produce his best work at all times. He has such a creative mind and his wit and humor are infectious. He brings fun to every project and is still able to to get the job done on time, every time. He thinks not only of the user, but the business as a whole. Dave is one of the best people to brainstorm with. He enhances any project that he touches and is one of the best people I have ever had the great pleasure of working with.
