Dave Schools

Hi, I'm Dave.

I'm a writer by trade and entrepreneur by disease. I currently live Richmond, Virginia with my family.

I’m the co-founder of Hopin, a new online events platform headquartered in London.

My writing has been featured in The Next Web, Smashing Magazine, CNBC, Business Insider, Axios, Quartz, Thought Catalog, and Fortune.

I'm the owner and editor of the Entrepreneur's Handbook, a top publication on Medium.com covering entrepreneurship, startups, tech, and design. Mike Allen, cofounder of Axios, referred to me as an "entrepreneurship expert."

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 trends writer for The Hustle, the number one daily email newsletter for over 1.5m entrepreneurs.

I'm the author of Runaway Millionaire, a 384-page novel about a family tested by crime, betrayal, and radical forgiveness.

I'm the CEO of Party Qs, Inc., a conversation starter app on a mission to help people have quality conversations, available in the App Store and Play Store.

I'm available for consulting contracts to help startups, small businesses, apps, and brands solve tough content and community problems. Feel free to contact me about opportunities.
