Dan graduated with honors from Amherst College in 1998. While at Amherst, Dan was a four year starting catcher on the baseball team and was selected as team captain in his senior year. After playing professional baseball in Europe, he returned to Amherst as an assistant coach from 2003 to 2005. Dan became extensively involved in athletic recruiting, and soon realized how much he enjoyed helping student-athletes navigate their way through this stressful yet rewarding process. After spending a year in Washington, D.C. working with athletes and their families, Dan moved to Manhattan and joined the Collegiate Compass team in 2006. Since then, Dan has worked with a wide variety of students, both athletes and non-athletes, to help them maximize their college options and reach their goals. In addition, Dan is the Director of College Guidance for a non-profit organization in Manhattan. He visits over 30 college campuses across the country each year and enjoys traveling, playing softball in Central Park and taking photographs around the city.
