When Dan isn’t diving in the dark with Navy SEALs, rucking through the cold with a team carrying logs, or building something in his shop, he’s serving his wife and three kids in the ways that only he can in Eugene, Oregon. Every day he’s showing others how to have an epic, adventurous life and love the journey with some powerful tools!He started the Anthem of the Adventurer out of a deep seated need for adventure in his life, and to share that journey with other men. Before joining SEAL Team Leaders, where he serves as the head coach in the leadership and teams class, Dan has worked with research centers at Purdue University for both the National Science Foundation and NASA, helping make our society more resilient to all the natural hazards nature throws at us on Earth as well as on the moon and Mars. Prior to this, he has worked as a validation engineer for Caterpillar, a manufacturing engineer for Subaru, and a fluid systems engineer for Electric Boat working on nuclear submarine design. Dan holds a bachelor’s of science in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Illinois, but clearly… doesn’t do much engineering these days. He is also working on a book.
