Dave Saunders’s Summary
email: dave@nemock.org
May I assist with your networking needs? I'm happy to accept your Invitation to Connect with me.
Started on the Internet in 1990: in engineering, sales, marketing, product management and as a breakout speaker at international trade shows. I see myself as a bridge between the obscure and the accessible. I've written several ebooks on a range of subjects from health and nutrition to leadership and time management and enjoy helping others tell their stories.
