About
David Pang is the Co-Founder and CEO of SheetWhiz, a productivity tool built to bring Excel-style shortcuts, workflows, and efficiency into Google Sheets.
David studied finance and accounting at The Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania before beginning his career in private equity at Silver Lake Partners. In that role, Excel was central to much of his day-to-day work, from financial modeling and investment analysis to reporting, data cleanup, and operational reviews. That experience gave him a deep appreciation for the shortcuts, structure, and modeling habits that help finance professionals move quickly and accurately through complex spreadsheet work.
After moving into the startup world, David saw more teams shifting their work from Excel to Google Sheets. While Google Sheets made collaboration easier, he also saw firsthand how many finance, accounting, and operations teams struggled with the loss of speed, precision, and muscle memory they had built in Excel. Common workflows such as cleaning data, navigating large models, formatting reports, applying formulas, and reviewing spreadsheet outputs often became more manual and time-consuming than they needed to be.
That gap inspired David to start SheetWhiz. The product was designed to help spreadsheet power users work faster in Google Sheets by bringing familiar Excel-style productivity features, shortcuts, and workflows into a collaborative cloud environment. SheetWhiz helps business teams reduce repetitive spreadsheet work, improve efficiency, and spend more time on analysis rather than manual formatting or navigation.
David is also the co-founder of Dimely, a Y Combinator-backed company focused on automating finance and accounting workflows. Across SheetWhiz and Dimely, his work centers on helping finance, accounting, and operations teams eliminate repetitive manual work, improve accuracy, and build more efficient systems.
Through SheetWhiz, David writes about spreadsheet productivity, finance workflows, Google Sheets best practices, and practical ways teams can improve the way they work with data. His perspective is shaped by hands-on experience in finance, investing, startup operations, and building tools for teams that rely heavily on spreadsheets.
