About

Hey! I'm David.

As a young, Christian, business owner, growing investor, connector, and communicator, I'm passionate about seeing the next generation lead well. You are loved, and you can do it. Take reading this as a sign to keep going!

My story

I LOVE people.

For years, I thought you had to be whatever everyone else said you should be, and that there was never time or money to find out who you really are.

But then I started leaning into who God created me to be - and it’s unlocking things in me every day.

See, every one of us has God-given talents, gifts, and a personality that’s uniquely ours.

When you first get to know that about yourself, and then get to know those around you for who they really are, you can build something incredible with those strengths... and that’s how you build the strongest team you’ve ever had.

That’s my passion, and that’s what I’m setting out to do: help people discover who they were created to be, and plug them into teams that need their unique strengths.

I love listening, asking questions, and creating solutions that drive maximum value, until someone goes from “I have no idea how to fix this” to knowing that they’re capable of so so much more.

No problem is impossible.

It’s an opportunity to create something great, and it’s so much more fun when we take it on together!

Maybe the greatest tool for relationships.

Everyone’s building “AI native” right now, but I believe we have to get back to first priorities - people.

And if I’m being real, I believe that AI might be the greatest tool we’ve ever had for deepening relationships.

I put the whole thought into an essay.

Rebekah

The love of my life.

Rebekah and I have quite the love story, breakup and all.

But, lo and behold, on July 18, 2026 we said “I DO!!” and I can’t even begin to describe how thankful I am for her.

She’s got her own site in the works, but for now, I’ll leave you with one of our favorite gifts from the Kinabrew Boys, this awesome shot on film. 🤍

Faith

It’s everything to me.

I can’t not write about it.

I don’t force it on anyone, but like anything else, it helps to know what I believe before we work together.

I believe God is never late in providing for our needs, even if it comes down to 11:59 on the clock the night before we need it - it’s why my newsletter is called The 1159.

Family

My amazing family.

I’d never be where I am today without the most loving, supportive, and incredible family on earth.

I get to work with my brother Matthew every day across the businesses, and we’re such a powerhouse team!

I love showing off his great work, too; he’s made some INSANE things, like the library app at library.mncoleman.com, a budgeting app, and more.

The Talent Discovery Kit

Find your own patterns.

It's the process I used on myself. You get the assessments I'd take, and a skill that lays your results over each other to find your patterns and outliers, then writes them into one guiding document.

Where I'm focused

How can I create value for you?

I'm passionate about encouraging today's young professionals. Whether it's starting a career, launching a business, growing a brand, or just making a life, my heart is to encourage you on your journey.
