Dave has always been drawn to the "why" behind the build—the physics of sound, the precision of design, the strategy behind where a speaker goes and why. For him, it’s never been just about the gear. It’s about how science and creativity meet to shape an experience people feel.

Since 1995, Dave has been in the mix. Literally. From FOH and monitor world to launching his own AV company, he’s spent decades leading design, managing installs, tuning systems, and building lasting client relationships. One of his favorite projects? A studio built for a two-time Grammy-winning artist, where he led the integration team from start to finish.

Today, he brings that same drive and depth to CSD, helping clients turn big visions into real-world systems that work, are on budget, and are on time without compromise. With expertise in tools like Smaart, EASE, Sound vision, and Q-SYS, he’s able to model, tune, and refine every detail for the best possible outcome. Because to Dave, the real magic is making the message come through loud and clear.
