He is an award-winning storyteller who has created content across platforms (print, web, TV, podcast, public radio, digital, social).
He has spoken at major gatherings and roundtables on media startups, disruption in journalism, and transforming archives into engaging digital content.
David is currently consulting on content strategies and projects for major brands.
