Hi - I'm Dave Bruns, and I run Exceljet with my wife, Lisa. Our goal is to help you work faster in Excel. We create short videos, and clear examples of formulas, functions, pivot tables, conditional formatting, and charts.
I really enjoy your site. I'm fairly proficient with excel, but I always use your site as a resource for those formulas that I don't use on a regular basis. Keep it up!
