About Me

I'm David Braun, 39 y.o., married, got 4 kids, 3 dogs, and 1 parrot.
I've been in web development since 2002, first with TemplateMonster, TOP-3 of the world's providers of website templates. Now, I'm driving Weblium and Draftium projects, which are aimed to change the website building industry.
I enjoy sharing my knowledge and experience, so I speak at 70+ conferences and TEDx annually. My second passion is civil activism, which is why I created the largest in Europe crowdfunding platform for volunteer projects People's Project in 2013 and empowerment program for women entrepreneurs Digital Women 2020.

    Draftium

    Turbo prototyping tool for websites. Ideate and collaborate on website prototypes with the team and clients. The idea was to create something really powerful but easy-to-use even for those team members who are far from design expertise.

"You should always be honest with your clients and it will ultimately pay off. If you understand that your solution is not going to solve the client’s problem, you should back off and show them some alternatives on the market."
