Hello...my name is Dave Abrahamsen and since 2002 my motto has been, “please evolve.” This phrase is a reminder for me to continue to learn, experience and grow. Personally and professionally, I am always looking to expand my abilities to create and solve problems. This website is a showcase of that expansion relating to identity, interactive and motion design. Thanks for visiting and stay tuned for my full site!

Just started my dive into learning how to develop apps for the iPhone and iPad. A great overview of C programming can be found here -> Learn C for Cocoa. I know Flash is an option now, but I want to try my hand at learning another coding language.
What do you want to learn?

To give back to the design and development community I will be posting tutorials and articles on graphic design, Flash, PHP, jQuery and more. Feel free to email me with any requests.

Over the past 5 years the website of PLEASE EVOLVE has been neglected. In place of a real site, a very static, outdated and under developed home page has polluted the internet. Being embarrassed to show this to even a dog, I decided it was time to let the world know what I've learned and worked on.
Take a look at my featured projects and come back often to see the latest updates (mobile optimized version, more work samples and eventually a fully functional website).
