I am a Digital Product Designer
& Certified Project Manager
from Fort Lauderdale Florida
Work is love made visible.
Hi, my name is Dave and I believe that the secret to creating great interactive experiences and successful digital products is through research and collaboration. I am a hybrid (designer + developer), multimedia designer with a passion for user-centered product design and digital marketing.
I love what I do. I am motivated by utilizing my diverse skill sets to help solve complex business challenges from a variety of unique perspectives. I enjoy taking on leadership roles focused on agile methodologies and care deeply about creating an environment for multidisciplinary teams to engage in creative exploration, developing a shared understanding, and ultimately achieving a superior outcome for the products we build.
I consider myself a Multiplier, devoted to teaching and uplifting team members to help them grow and achieve new skills through personal experiencers and tacit knowledge.
I’m based in Fort Lauderdale but originally hail from the bustling city streets of Brooklyn, New York.
Thanks for stopping by,
Dave Pando

When I am not participating in technical evangelism, you will often find me immersed in musical activities from studying Eastern music to practicing flamenco guitar, or pounding an oversized taiko drum; my passion for studying, writing and producing music is insatiable.
Other interests include traveling, foreign languages, general research, behavioral psychology, forensics, WWII history, concert photography, vexillology, horror movies, and special effects make-up (Halloween is kind of a big deal for me).
