Did you know that Dan is extremely tall?  No, I don't think you understand-

he’s like a giant, standing at 6’7”.  He is originally from Pittsburgh, PA—home of the six-time Super Bowl Champion Pittsburgh Steelers. (**note: Dan will accept corporate sponsorships.  I’m lookin at you, Steelers.)

He came to Evangel University in 2003 and had his eyes opened to the wonder of improv in the fall of 2004, when he made the Improv Sportz (then Donnybrook) team at The Skinny Improv.  Dan kept performing with Improv Sportz until he joined the Mainstage Cast in the spring of 2007.

Currently, Dan works at North Point Church here in Springfield, using his talents in video and theater to impact the people of Springfield.

Some of Dan’s hopes and dreams include:

1.    Someday moving to Chicago and hitting up the improv scene there;

2.    Living in a foreign country for a period of time;

3.    Learning to cook well enough that he doesn’t need a cookbook;

4.    Becoming great enough that he can remember all the lyrics and be able to sing R.E.M.’s “It’s the End of the World As We Know It;”

5.    Marrying someone who can put up with a giant/knows-what-it’s-like-to-sit-with-your-knees-wedged-into-the-kidneys-of-the-person-sitting-in-front-on-you-on-an-airplane.
