Dan is a native Floridian. Born and raised in Palma Ceia, six miles south of Tampa, Dan only left home to attend FSU where he graduated in 1969 with an accounting degree. Soon after college he put his career in gear and started a family. For a number of years he worked for small and large national accounting firms and in 1976 decided to go "solo." It was just two years after starting his practice that he joined the Rotary Club of Casselberry, sponsored by Dave Snyder. The rest is history. Dan has been an integral part of the club - President in 1986-1987, Foundation Treasurer for many years and served on the district level as District Treasurer under six District Governors. What motivates him to be be part of Rotary? Dan says "the reward comes in the service to the community." He is a proud father of a son and daughter and just recently re-married (3 years ago) to his lovely wife Carolyn.
