I had the pleasure of working under Dave for several years and one of his best qualities is his consistently thoughtful feedback on design. He loves his craft and is exceptional at communicating his ideas while simultaneously embracing the clients needs. He is a great asset to any team and brings a wide range of abilities to the table. His design skills, communication and openness to solving problems are all valuable traits that any employer would be lucky to have.

I recently had Dave design my business logo and business cards. Having no sense of design myself I relied heavily on Dave's skills to be able to understand what I had in my head and to get it on paper. He was able to provide prompts and suggestions as well as ask the right questions to help me come to a clearer vision of what I wanted in my logo. It was then, with a lot of patience from Dave, that he was able to get the image I wanted into an actual design.
