Dave Olbrich of The Pack

SUPER POWER

Dave’s friends describe him as: fair, sharp, honest, creative, dependable, intuitive, sincere, loyal, and innovative, with exceptional people skills, but he hasn’t got x-ray vision.

SECRET IDENTITY

Dave loves to laugh out loud, but we don’t call him Laughing Boy.

Part of a mixed marriage—he’s a Vikings fan, she’s a Packers fan—they’re the proud parents of Maggie, who wrote the book for two full-length high school musicals.

Laughing Boy…er, Dave…denies that he’s the bird in our logo.
