Empowering others to chase their dreams and leave their mark

Hi, I'm Dan. 👋 I write and speak about career development to help students, entrepreneurs, and seasoned professionals accomplish extraordinary goals.

My mission is to inspire people to become the best version of themselves so that they feel empowered to chase their dreams and leave their mark on the world.

I typically spend my days buried in a booth at a local coffee shop. Ideas flow best with a cup ofcoffee in one hand and a bagel in the other.
