Dan - Vice President of Operations

My name is Dan, and I am the vice president of operations.

I was raised in Coon Rapids, MN, and spent four years in Muskegon, MI, before coming back to Minnesota. I have a bachelor's degree in marketing management from the University of St. Thomas, and I've worked in operations since 2005. I started my career with Warner-Elektra-Atlantic Corp. and then spent eight years with Cambria.

Outside of work, I love spending time with my family, which includes my wife, four kids, and our American Staffordshire Terrier, Lily. I also love to golf, spend time at the lake, and play house/techno music. I also love grilling over an open fire.

Something Surprising: I have an affinity for architecture.

Favorite Award: My favorite award is the Athens Award, specifically the blue and amber ones. The award has a timeless midcentury look and feel. In addition, the steps in the colored crystal look like no other award. It's a very cool design!
