David was very helpful and has always been there in need of dire web hosting help! Thanks Dave!
Francois Luks
As the webmaster for a national non-profit organization, I worked with David, who managed the web design team. I found him particularly receptive and responsive to any of our problems, even anticipating them and thinking outside the box to bring us to a higher level. He knew when to take charge and when to delegate - it was always a pleasure to work with him. I wish him best of luck in his new endeavor.
