Dan attended the College of St. Scholastica, where he earned his bachelor’s in computer information systems. He has spent his entire career, thus far, working with technology, for which he considers himself fortunate. Dan has held a variety of tech-related positions in which he was responsible for website development, monitoring and troubleshooting company-wide information systems, network monitoring, and developing and maintaining reporting tools and data-processing applications.Duluth born and bred, Dan never considered venturing to warmer climes. He enjoys being "cooler by the lake," and loves Duluth for its perfect combination of big-city and small-town living. It's small enough that rush-hour traffic is nonexistent, but large enough that there’s always a variety of interesting events going on around town. Dan enjoys playing music, gaming, and “other general geeky activities.”
