Thanks for stopping by; here's a little bit about me ...

Hi, I’m Dave —an experienced software engineering leader passionate about building high-performing teams, crafting innovative products, and solving complex problems.

I currently lead a talented team of engineers at Nory, where we create intelligent solutions that enhance workforce management for hospitality operations, worldwide. With over a decade in the tech industry, I’ve navigated the challenges of startups and scaling organizations, always focused on delivering impact while fostering collaboration and growth.

Beyond work, I enjoy writing about leadership, technology, and personal development, sharing insights from my career and life. Whether it’s lessons learned in the trenches of product development or my thoughts on effective communication, my goal is to spark conversations and inspire others in their journeys.

When I’m not solving puzzles at work, you can often find me playing learning to play chess, exploring new ideas, or spending time outdoors with my family and Bernese Mountain dog, Biggie.

This is a space where I share thoughts on leadership, software engineering, and the occasional deep dive into what inspires me. If any of this resonates with you, hit subscribe—I’d love to have you along.

Thanks for stopping by!
Dave
