"The only rockstar developers I know are @dylanbeattie @davidhussman @davedisasterman and @jplebre. Because they are both developers and actual rock stars."

David Benson (@DaveDisasterman) started out sometime in the mid 90s with IE5.5 and Notepad. Decades later a long and winding path has seen him work with an incredibly varied roster of clients, from startups to multinationals and a host of household names. Bruce Springsteen is probably his favourite to casually namedrop!
No stranger to a stage or microphone, David has compered weird and wonderful events for many years, is an accomplished DJ and karaoke host, and can occasionally hit a note while singing. His prized crossover performance is the night he took to the stage to play Guns'n'Roses with Dylan Beattie as Slash and Backslash.
David is currently consulting as tech lead at NewDay in London UK.
