Dave Winter focuses in WordPress UI Design and WordPress Plugin Development (some have gone so far as to label him a fanatic) but has hands in many other projects, including photography and music. He’s never far from a computer… or an iPad (for testing purposes, of course). If you’ve been to a WordCamp in Southern California, he probably already knows who you are (or maybe not – he’s terrible with names). Dave currently teaches courses in Web Development and Technology Ethics at California State University, Long Beach alongside his small business at dauid.us (and his students think he’s pretty boss).

Most of my professional life has been spent as a teacher, though I’ve always had a hand in some sort of creative design project. Merging code and art to form something entirely unique and usable both tempts and challenges me, and designing for the web is exactly that. Only thing I like better than coding is teaching others how to code (including my wife, who wants absolutely no part in it). Doesn’t keep me from trying, though!
