About Me

JUN 12 2025

Hi.

I’m David, also known as kelly d, an alias that came about primarily in an attempt to be more memorable (?) and a bit more Google-friendly.

Check out my recent projects.

Check out what I’m into now.

Check out my resume.

Lightning Round

  • I am an always-learning web developer
  • I once wrote a personal bio for myself that was configured as a fill-in-the-blank Madlib
  • I once had Roxane Gay as a professor, a Creative Writing course in which our primary semester assignment was to write a novel, which I hope to publish someday
  • I am a jack-of-all-trades in a career track that often values specialization, but this has enabled me to bring value to any project, no matter the focus
  • I like to think of myself as a Swiss Army knife in that I can fill any area of greatest need, which is how I became somewhat front end focused
  • I am … (was?) … a 5th-generation Floridian that recently relocated to Northern Virginia with my wife
  • I believe that my English degree helps me bring certain skills that can be not only valuable, but also less common, in tech-centric lines of work
  • I take pride in being a Big Picture™ person with foresight to see the challenges before they arise
  • I wrote and produced electronic music many years ago as kelly d, kelly dallen, or metafakt, most of which was not so great, but is still a hobby
