Meet the team

David Resnick, Chief Evangelist & Co-Founder

David Resnick is outside the box. He is an entrepreneur, new media strategist, artist, and biofield energy worker who is absolutely psyched about how Stutter Social has grown from being something he started because he missed his PWS friends to being an international virtual support group. With the help of the NSA, David has become more comfortable and confident with his speech and he endeavors to give as much as he can back to the community. David is presently a partner in Viewcy, an online education platform, and is working on the next Vibrationist instrument. David finds it very interesting that his blocks shift over time...presently it is on W's and Y's.

Daniele Rossi, Chief Digital Strategist & Co-Founder

Daniele Rossi is a digital media professional, prolific content creator and cartoonist. His enthusiasm for online media comes from the sheer awesomeness of connecting people around the world who share a common interest or not-so-common experience like stuttering. Along with co-founding Stutter Social, Daniele enjoys producing the Stuttering is Cool podcast since 2007 and drawing comics about stuttering for ti-ger.org. Daniele is equally passionate in bodybuilding, mystery novels, music with a great melody, old time radio and, of course, cartoons! Daniele lives in Toronto, Canada, blocks and stutters with too many secondaries.
