David is a video game designer, writer, author, and educator. As an professional game writer, he's written for over a dozen games (including dialogue, comedic prose, technical writing and sales copy) and has shared his expertise at institutions like the Gotham Writers' Workshop, Playcrafting, and the Srishti Institute of Art, Design and Technology.

In addition to writing front-page content for educational sites like the Gotham Writers' Workshop and gaming news sites like Gamasutra and GameCareerGuide, David specializes in content regarding entrepreneurship and all kinds of software - most notably software as a servise (SaaS). He facilitated the creation of Stacklist, a website that researches the distinct advantages (and disadvantages) of SaaS products and helps customers choose the right software to run their business. David spent months interviewing entrepreneurs about the software they use to run their businesses, then consolidated that information into consumer-facing reports which were easy to read and highly detailed.

Prior to writing for games and technology, David was an actor and is still deeply connected to the theater scene in New York City (as a matter of fact, his best friend is currently in Pretty Woman The Musical on Broadway). He's eager for the chance to cut his teeth on fresh pieces about old passions.
