This week happens to be Dave’s anniversary here at ASI. We’re pretty spoiled having him around, as he’s quite the programming jack of all trades – and joke of all trades knower. Bad joke? Yeah, he would have a better one...
Let’s see what interesting things Dave’s shared with us…
- Favorite job growing up? Working on a ski hill
- One thing you can’t resist? Doritos or pretzels
- Favorite quote (movie or life, mantra)? The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.
- Favorite piece of technology you own and why? My trail cameras. Interesting to see what’s all running around the woods…
- Any favorite line from a movie? “Hot dogs! You know what they’re made of, Chet? Huh? Lips and a**holes!”
- If you could learn to do anything, what would it be? Juggle. That or get over my fear of heights.
- What’s your favorite indoor/outdoor activity? Landscaping, gardening, bow hunting, turkey hunting, golf…

- What’s the best meal you’ve ever had? Anything off my pellet grill/smoker…

- If you could be any fictional character, who would you choose? Charlie Brown
- What would you most like to tell yourself at age 13? Get your act together…
- How did you first learn about ASI? I was hired as a Contract Programmer back in the early 2000’s and spent a year here doing development. I also worked with some of the people here in the mid-1990’s at a company called SDS.
- What advice do you have for prospective ASI candidates? Work hard and have fun…
- Are you messy or organized? Organized. Not OCD, but I know where my stuff is and where it goes.

Thanks, Dave, for all you do for ASI and our customers!
