David has seven years experience consulting for several finance clients, during which time he has managed successful media campaigns, drafted copy for corporate profiles, websites and advertisements, and advised on branding issues.

David has developed strong media contacts based on an understanding that good stories and good writing attract media attention, a belief recently vindicated when one of Australia's leading finance journalists came to Manallack Pty Ltd for PR.

He has a Bachelor of Arts (First Class Honours) from Deakin University, with majors in Media Studies and Literature, and has a Graduate Diploma in Professional Writing. David's writing has appeared in several publications including the Age and the Big Issue.
