EPISODE NOTES
A serial entrepreneur and life long technologist, Dave Parkhurst spent much of his early career with Apple. In the early 90s, when the commercial internet was emerging, Dave saw an opportunity and so started GreenHaven Interactive to see if there was money to be made on the web.
Apple was gracious in not minding if team members had side gigs, so GreenHaven grew from website development into a one of the first full service digital marketing agencies in the northwest. When Dave left Apple in 2006, GreenHaven began expanding its offerings and team. Now the company is a leading SEO and digital lead generation and marketing firm with 15 people, growing rapidly.
