Dan is new to the nonprofit world and got started when volunteering with a few organizations around town. SOUL stood out to him as he made friends with the staff and really enjoyed the work. As a native New Orleanian, his passion for nature and trees started early as he climbed the trees in City Park with his brother and father. He has worked in car dealerships, restaurants, ran a bread route and worked as a manager of a fab shop. He’s excited about this new chapter.

Dan enjoys spending time with his cat, reading fantasy novels, playing video and board games, biking, traveling and backpacking through national parks.
