David is an enthusiastic web developer with years of experience helping small and large businesses establish and optimize their online presence. He is passionate, in particular, about WordPress development and has a variety of experience working with hundreds of different WordPress themes and plugins to find the perfect setup for each business’s unique needs. He is constantly staying updated on the latest speed, security, and SEO best practices for WordPress and is excited to share those findings with his clients.
When he’s not obsessing over a website project, he is working on his novel, watching a movie, or enjoying a good hike.
Career highlights:
David started his web development journey through his own small business: a tutoring company that he ran for 5 years and that helped hundreds of K-12 students with homework and ACT prep. He quickly learned the fundamentals of SEO, online marketing, eCommerce, and web design as he built and maintained the company website where customers found tutors, booked sessions, and made payments.
Eventually, he realized that he loved the web development side of his business so much that he wanted to do this full-time. So he sold the business and, over the next few years, dove deeper into web development while he expanded his skills through full-time freelancing. Now, he is excited to apply that experience to O|M’s clients.
