LEADERSHIP
Dave Carroll
I'm David Carroll. A serial entrepreneur, and the rule-breaking visionary behind DOPE. I'm 37 years old and started my first business at 24, Lions Share Maintenance. Lions Share pretty much grows itself now and I have phased himself out over the last few years to focus on my dope new passion for direct mail, data, and the automation of traditional marketing.
Conor O'Phelan
Hey - I'm Conor, a St. Paul, MN native who’s also spent time in Boston and Chicago. I love startups, UX design, and am currently improving the products at DOPE. Outside of work, you'll find me either chasing around my two kiddos, up at the cabin in Wisconsin, or whipping up something new in the kitchen (sometimes all three)

I'm married to a wonderful woman, dog dad to the most unique Border Collie x Cattle Dog Mix you'll ever meet, and striving to reach new opportunities every single day. On my days off I'm either out trying new foods, catching up with my family, kicking back with my guys, or hitting someplace nice outside in nature is where I tend to be.

Before settling in the Twin Cities area I was living and working as a gym manager in the beautiful Black Hills of South Dakota.
