Happy Clients

“During Dan’s visit to campus, he took time to work one-on-one with council members and chapter leadership. He challenged my students’ ideas and pushed them to reach new conclusions to better their community. After time spent with Dan, my students were excited to try out his suggestions, and apply his expertise to their positions. The brief time he spent with these student leaders definitely left an impact.
Frae BinderAssistant Director of Fraternity/Sorority Life, Texas Tech University
Dan carries a persona that exudes 'authenticity' in the way he delivers his message. He resonates with our collegiate students and is able to challenge them in ways that initiate open dialogue. Dan has an amazing ability to connect and engage students while still leaving them wanting more.​
