Dave started as a teenager writing Space Shuttle software for NASA, and also had a weekly radio show for punk and comedy. Every day since has been even more fun and strange.
He loves learning, and his diverse expertise includes:
• Technology (data, code, security)
• Publishing (games, novels, reference works)
• Nerd Culture (comics, games, online)
• Preaching (sermons about zombies, pirates, aliens, and more)
Technologically, he’s spent twenty-five years of designing, developing, databasing, documenting, and directing a variety of projects in many industries. Projects include areospace, anti-fraud, anti-terrorism, data accuracy, virtual reality, geospatial analytics, and automated systems. Some industries are safety, gaming, healthcare, and finance.
Bookishly, he’s written hundreds of magazine articles, co-written several books, led three magazines as editor-in-chief, edited about five million words, and created an independent small press which published over a hundred books over 13 years.
Spiritually, he works for the Lord to reach his fellow nerds and weirdos. He preaches at conventions dedicated to games, science fiction, and other geeky hobbies. He's served as vice president of the Christian Gamers Guild since 2003.
