Hi, my name is Dan.
I started telling stories as a kid...
Joke books. Ghost stories. Adventure tales. From there I became a journalist, focusing on telling real human stories. Like of a young boy with a debilitating heart condition who inspired his brother’s high school football team to victory. Or of a dog musher who, trapped in a blizzard hundreds of miles into the Iditarod, chose to end her dream of finishing the infamous race to save the life of one of her beloved dogs.
This love for storytelling led me to discover a career in copywriting and content strategy. I quickly learned brands have great stories to tell too. And now, I tell the stories hidden behind the old walls of financial services companies, where you’d be surprised lie some hidden gems for a storyteller.
From thought leadership, to marketing and advertising, to community impact, financial services brands have great stories to tell and I help them do it effectively. Analyzing metrics, writing with a UX focus, translating consumer trends, optimizing content for SEO, and presenting content and campaign performance to executive leadership are all part of my storytelling craft.
Now that you’ve learned a little bit about me, check out some of accomplishments.
