About

My full name is David de Gregório Neto, the same name as my grandfather, who in turn carried the name of our great-great-grandfather, Davide Gregorio, who came from Italy bringing with him much more than luggage. I grew up being called Netinho, then became Neto, and it stuck. There is something beautiful about carrying a name that spans generations.

I got married at 18 to Samara , the most beautiful and wonderful woman in this world. We have been together for 18 years, and every year convinces me more that I made the best choice of my life.

God gave us three daughters: Sophia (wisdom), Helena (the torch of fire), and Aurora (the dawn). Every name was chosen with care, and each of them is exactly what her name promises.

I was raised in ministry. My parents, Juninho and Teka, are pastors in the Assembleia de Deus, where I spent the first 29 years of my life of faith. Today I have the privilege of serving as a volunteer associate pastor at Igreja das Nações , in Criciúma, Santa Catarina.

I hold a degree in Advertising and Marketing from Univali and a degree in Theology from Unicesumar . Two fields of study that, in practice, never stopped talking to each other.

In 1999, my father enrolled me in a Delphi programming course. I learned nothing about coding, but it lit a spark. By 2000, I already had my first computer and was logging on to the internet in the middle of the night. I soon learned how to build websites.

In 2006, I co-founded GoBíblia with Giovanni Duarte , a search engine for evangelical websites. It was my first real project on the internet and the beginning of an intense chapter.

In 2008, Gospel Prime was born, again with Giovanni. Two years later, I bought out his share and took the project on my own. Over 10 years, it accumulated more than 200 million organic visits.

I sold Gospel Prime and closed a chapter that was enriching and, at the same time, exhausting. Working with news, staying on top of everything all the time, wore me down in a way only those who have lived it can understand.

After that, I devoted a full year to Igreja das Nações as a volunteer pastor. A year of rest, recalibration, and remembering what truly matters.

I then founded Hangar, a website design and hosting agency. We grew to more than 200 clients before I sold the project and moved on.

Today, I have been serving as COO of Universo Extremo, Tiago Tessmann 's company, for four and a half years. I bring everything I have learned, the wins, the mistakes, the exits, the fresh starts, to build something that truly lasts.
