Hi, I'm Dave.
I live in Bel Air, MD with my wife and three kids.
I'm the cofounder and CEO of Singulate - a new startup launched in 2024 with two cofounders. Singulate is a nextgen marketing platform that provides marketers with the easiest way to segment and hyper-personalize marketing messaging at scale. We raised $2.3m pre-seed and scaled to about $500k in 5 selling months in 2025.
Prior to Singulate, I was on the founding team of Hopin. I joined the company pre-revenue, pre-investment in 2019 and scaled it from $0 to $30m ARR. I served as head of marketing and helped launch the Events platform, StreamYard Enterprise, Session.com, and led growth for Streamable while running PR for company, ending my tenure as VP Multiproduct Growth when the company exited in April 2024.
I'm the owner of Entrepreneurship Handbook, a top 5 Medium publication with over 390k followers covering entrepreneurship, startups, tech, and design. Mike Allen, cofounder of Axios, referred to me as an "entrepreneurship expert."
I'm also the cofounder of Party Qs, Inc., a conversation starter app with over 1 million downloads on a mission to help people have good conversations, available in the App Store and Play Store. And as of 2026, as a card game.
I'm a former columnist at Inc.com, where I wrote about innovation, creativity, and business ideas. Once, I interviewed Shark Tank's Daymond John, founder of FUBU, Inc., a $6 billion global brand.
I’m a former Trends writer for The Hustle and contributor to CNBC Make It. My work has been featured in The Next Web, Smashing Magazine, Business Insider, Quartz, Thought Catalog, and Fortune.
I'm the author of Runaway Millionaire, a 384-page novel about a family tested by crime, betrayal, and radical forgiveness.
