{Sing with us…} Dan, Dan the Fireman…if he can’t do it no one can!
Talented and Youthful, Dan brings a fresh perspective to the team at Financial Voyages. We often think he’s an old soul trapped in a young man’s body – his favorite movies are “Airplane!” and “My Cousin Vinny” and he’s dedicated to volunteerism serving as a Firefighter and the Vice President for Perkiomen Township Fire Company.
Newly married, Dan said if he didn’t have to sleep he’d use that time to exercise or spend time with his wife. (We will have to revisit that answer in another 10-15 years and see if it changes any.) We’re surprised he didn’t say he’d spend time perfecting his go-to Karaoke song of “Rapper’s Delight.” He must be pretty confident in his performance skills.
Dan has a finely-tuned sense of humor. His favorite holidays include April Fools Day (no joke!) and Fourth of July (‘Merica.) Anyone who is lucky enough to know Dan, immediately sees how intelligent and loyal he is which are words often used to describe dogs. Strangely enough, dogs happen to be Dan’s preference in the age old “dogs vs cats” debate.
