[edit] Background

Born in 1989 at the local Wordsley Hospital, Dave spent his early life living in a small flat in the town of Brockmoor. Later, he moved onto the infamous Hawbush Estate with his mother, a single parent. He lived there while spending eight years at Hawbush Primary School. Prior to his move to Wordsley High School, then known as "Buckpool Secondary School", Dave moved to the outskirts of the estate to accomodate his mother and new step-dad's quickly growing family.

He has four brothers, all under the age of ten. His grandparents on his mother's side both still survive. No news exists of Dave's father, who departed while he was young. Thus, any information on family that side is sketchy at best.

Dave, enjoying A-level student life, is currently unemployed.

[edit] Education

He is an Upper Sixth Form student at King Edward VI College, in the nearby town of Stourbridge.

At College, he studies Communication Studies, General Studies, Modern History and Psychology to A2 Level. He currently has 14 GCSEs and 4 AS-Levels, most notably A-Stars in GCSE General Studies and Music, and a B in AS-Level Psychology.

[edit] Interests

Dave's interests include playing Bass Guitar, Computer Games (most notably of which includes Transport Tycoon Deluxe) and he is a quiet trainspotter. He does not, like most trainspotters, take part in standing on cold platforms with a notebook and camera. Instead, he is proficient in recognising UK train classes and destinations. This leads from an obsession with timetables and organised systems of chronology and classification

He sings backing vocals and plays bass in a recently formed four-piece known as Blind Medicine, which consists of Joe Lewis (Lead Vocals, Guitar); Phil Aston (Lead Guitar) and Tom Doyle (Drums, Percussion)

He enjoys sport, most notably football, baseball and Formula 1. Football wise, he is a keen follower of English Championship team West Bromwich Albion. He is also a fan of 2006 Baseball World Series Champions St Louis Cardinals.

Whilst not pursuing an active career in web design, Dave keenly produces his own website. As of October 2006, this is due a severe overhaul which he hopes to pursue early in 2007. He hopes to produce a more professional design with more links to his media, which currently includes a blog, podcasts and essays on several subjects within the Communication Studies spectrum. The latter has already led to Dave being included in the UK's Noise Festival's final listings for creative talent.

[edit] Unique Abilities

Dave can spread his fingers in any position he wishes, further to the V which most people try to perform by splitting their second and third fingers.

He also has a penchant for enlightening the world with useless information.
