Below is the Q&A with David that appears in Missouri Lawyers Weekly:

Tell us about your key accomplishment(s) in this role. 

I identified areas where repetitive tasks could be automated using technology and developed efficient workflows. By automating these processes and documenting them for others, I have saved considerable time for my department, allowing us to allocate more resources to business development and strategic marketing initiatives.

What is the best part of your job?

The dynamic and ever-changing nature of each day. No two days are alike, and this constant variation keeps me engaged and excited.
