A former startup CEO, speaker, and strategist, Dan is fond of creating pitch decks and Trello boards (just ask his colleagues...or even his family).

Dan is experienced in architecting web applications, marketing, branding, fundraising, pitching, and community building. His experience spans several industries including: international distribution and shipping, retail (store fixtures inventory), telecommunications, and renewable agriculture and sustainable living (fun fact - he was a frequent speaker at the Mother Earth News Fair).
