Hello there, I'm David
I am an Air Force veteran, and have worked across industries in construction, design/engineering, manufacturing, enterprise software, and EV charging infrastructure. In addition to my entreprenurial ventures, I have also held fulltime roles with the US military, small/medium busineses, and large Fortune 500 businesses.
My slightly eclectic journey provides a breadth of experience to approach a wide range of challenges and opportunities.
Disciplined dreamer
I love to ideate and consider what could be, and I equally enjoy the gritty work of turning ideas into reality.
Other Ventures & Past Work
Diversified consulting engagements and metal roofing back office services.

A personal note from me--
I am a big believer in business as an opportunity to create more value than just profit, and see business as an opportunity to be a core part of building vibrant communities and places where people can flourish.
Through the two ventures that I have built, I am quite proud of creating a great opportunity for the Metal Roof Quoter partner who has been able to be a stay at home dad, and creating a great job for our one W2 employee. No W2 employees for Timberlake Cove, but I have several 1099 folks I work with, and am also proud of the opportunities I’ve been able to help create for them.
Ultimately we’ve been able to provide very high quality, fairly priced services that have helped our customers build their businesses, while operating profitably and creating good opportunities for our own team. It’s a win-win-win all around, and a big part of what I love about being an entrepreneur–creating real, holistic value for all stakeholders.
If this resonates with you, and you are exploring pathways to hand your business off to the next leader, I would love to connect with you!
Building the world I want to live in, partly through business,
David
