Dave Tugwell

CEO

Dave has a passion for providing exceptional customer service. He started his career selling door to door, before a successful stint in the Navy where he quickly rose through the ranks and gained his commission. During his time in the Navy Dave started PWS after helping many friends build websites. After meeting Trent who was consulting to Navy at the time, Dave and Trent partnered in PWS and commenced a phase of massive growth in the company.

Dave’s motto is “under promise and over deliver”. Dave has an exceptional eye for detail and a work ethic that is second to none, this, combined with his determination is a recipe that means every website that we deliver goes out to clients meeting exacting standards.

Dave has a strong background in Project Management, including a Masters in Project Management. On the technical side Dave knows cPanel, Linux servers and PHP/mySQL technologies like the back of his hand.

Dave will ensure that you get everything you want and more from your projects with PWS.

Tibor Tazlari

Project Manager

Apart from looking somewhat like Thor, Tibor (pronounced Tib-oh in Aussie) has the brains of a German, and the charm of a French man. Tibor has and amazing diverse background that you can ask him about, but one thing that strikes me about Tibor is that he is one of those annoying people who has been successful at everything he has tried, whether that is olympic level snow skiing, or being the manager of an RV camper hire business. Tibor is incredibly intelligent and a dedicated, caring project manager.

We are lucky to have Tibor as part of the PWS team. Thank goodness we found him when he was backpacking and got a place to stay by house sitting at Dave’s house one Christmas when he went away!
