Having been the IT guy in his family since his youth, it is fitting that he is building a company focused on improving outcomes in tech support.

Whether it’s at home or at work, David enjoys the journey whenever possible. You can find him spending his free time on Zwift, and is subservient to his Apple Watch. (Gotta close your rings!) After every honey do item was completed in 2020, David took up his wife’s hobby of gardening. As a lifelong gamer, he has embarked on a journey with his kids to create a video game on Roblox.
