David Andrew Konov was born on a warm sunny day in Adelaide, South Australia in 1975 and is affectionately known as David 'Dingo' Konov.
David has led a creative life working in Graphic Design, Printing, Catalogue Modelling, television and for the past twelve years, Radio. Starting off in Radio Promotions then onto Commercial Production and Station Imaging, he achieved a prestigious Gold Sony Radio Award in 2004 for producing Scotland's Forth One's Information Award.
He made his name on Scotland's East Coast when he co-hosted and produced Radio Forth's 'Boogie & Dingo's Big Saturday Show' which was networked across Scotland. In 2009 the show won the prestigious Gold New York Radio Award for best Comedy Humour Personality.
David also co-hosted and produced 'Boogie in the Morning', Forth One's popular 'Breakfast Show'. This is still Scotland's number 1 breakfast show and was the winner of a Silver New York Radio Award for 'Best Music Personality' in 2010.
Come wind, rain or shine, David hosted a multitude of public events for Forth One - fireworks displays, gala days, the legendary Knockhill race days, club nights, corporate fun days, store openings, runway modelling, podcasts, vodcasts and all types of fun family events, even church fetes.
David was a regular on STV's flagship tea time programme, 'The Hour'. He could be seen out filming video pieces on the streets or in the studio - testing out new gadgets like the best snow sledges to covering more serious pieces, like the history of the clipper ship 'City of Adelaide'.
When not at Radio Forth or STV, David worked for Canongate Studios, as a freelance audio producer and at Canongate Models for catalogue photo shoots and radio tv commercials. In recent yearsy he filmed a pilot, as host for a new TV game show, for Greenroom Films.
David is a total professional, easy to work with and always well briefed. His preparation for any event is meticulous and his confidence is inspiring. David is one delightful antipodean with bags of charisma, a great sense of humour and a fast growing reputation.
Dave is currently traveling extensively, working as a Cruise Director with Norwegian Cruise Lines so he is often out of the country. When he is back in Edinburgh, he is available for hosting all types of events shows, fronting video pieces and photo shoots.
