Founder Experience
"Building organizations from the ground up has been the most valuable business education of my career. Founding Pin Cancer and co-founding Matabourne gave me hands-on experience across product development, ecommerce operations, user acquisition, brand partnerships, retention, and growth strategy — lessons that can’t be learned in a classroom."
FOUNDER AND BOARD PRESIDENT
After being affected first hand, Dan founded Pin Cancer, a national nonprofit using the sport of wrestling to raise funds for cancer research and families in need. The organization has raised over $4 million and built a national community of supporters, events, and brand & athlete partnerships.
CO-FOUNDER
As a side project, Dan co-founded Matabourne (formally Terra Grappl'r) a wrestling shoe & apparel brand known for its innovative designs. The brand rapidly gained market share, establishing itself as an industry leader before being successfully acquired.
