  • Dave's first driving experience was in a 1968 Volvo 142, which launched his obsession with the Swedish brand.
  • He's owned over 40 cars, including a 5.0 Fox Body Mustang, the one vehicle he still regrets selling.
  • His recent project cars include a first-generation Nissan Leaf and a New Edge Ford Mustang (with 265,000 miles), both of which are now roadworthy.

Experience

Dave's professional life has always involved writing, including governmental and business communications positions. At the same time, he dove into the automotive world through auctions, project cars, and a passion for car culture. This led to a lasting desire to write about automobiles for a living. The pandemic's lockdown created an ideal opportunity for a career pivot. Since then, Dave has been living the dream—covering the auto industry, vehicle highlights, related lifestyle stories, and more. He uses his under-the-hood experience, a dealership background (he sold cars during college), extensive ownership know-how, and lifelong love for cars to produce compelling stories for enthusiasts and consumers. His work has appeared in HotCars, CBT News, and other platforms. He recently joined Static Media to cover industry news, trends, and other pertinent topics.

Education

David has Bachelor of Arts in journalism and Master of Public Administration degrees from The George Washington University.
