Hi, I'm Dave — a writer, designer and educator living on Dharawal Country in Sydney.

I love learning new things and I'm very good at helping people explain those things to others, especially in the service of changing behaviours or perceptions.

I do any and all aspects of learning design: learning strategies and high level documents, design and development, stakeholder and project management and evaluation - even draw the pictures.

My projects have won multiple awards, and I'm happy to talk through their design logic and construction, but I can't always share them because I don't own the IP.

I got my first big break as an intern writing for The Glass House in 2003. These days, I mostly work on feature scripts. But I'm always up to hear about your project (email me).

I love making pictures move.

For years, when writing and directing animation, I had talented visual designers do the hard work of bringing them to life.

Over the past few years, I've buried myself in learning how to do that step myself. I've definitely got a predeliction for 1950's UPA animation, but I'll always work with the client to find a style that suits the project.

I used to be a stand-up comedian.

I recorded very little material, and in very poor quality.

But I plan to include some here, just because.

I'd love to hear from you and chat about your cool project.

Or who knows? Maybe we could just grab a coffee and chat about what interests you.
