I am He that is Dave

mmmmmm... beer

About Me

I'm of course, Dave. I'm a web designer, interactive multimedia designer , and a former United States Marine Aircraft Firefighter (Iwakuni Japan 1998-1999, Cherry Point North Carolina 1999-2001).

I work full-time in Foster City exhausting my abilities over deadlines and poorly decided schedules. My life is an open book; it's leather-bound, written in English and constructed at a collegiate level... albeit basic when acceptable.

I’m a Cancer by birth and seem confined by its characteristics. I’m a workaholic to some degree but always seem to find my way to a bar when there aren't any good commercials on TV.

Heroes:

Anyone who has the strength to see above the clouds on stormy days or fight for brightness during the darkest hour. Anyone who can overlook social and cultural subjugation and react purely on moral and ethical intuition for the greater good. Those whom without regard of their own well-being, react to help or save someone in danger. And after all that's done, are humble enough to not take any credit or ego-boosting accolades, but give credit to those whom helped him/her evolve.
