  • Digital was started by Carson Shanklin.
    Carson is a Systems Engineer with over 25 years of experience in the television and film industry and a and father of three.

    After encountering the limitations and confusing nature of the tools available for managing tech time and content for his children, Carson discovered effective ways to implement restrictions and controls.

    Carson founded Digital Dad believing protecting our kids online shouldn't be confusing or complicated. Understanding that busy parents have limited time and troubleshooting technical devices can be overwhelming, Digital Dad works to educate and empower parents. It provides the parent with an understanding of the tools needed to make the digital landscape safe and enjoyable for the whole family.
