Dan received his BSME from Purdue many years ago. He comes to us from the Wood Research Laboratory (WRL) in Purdue’s Forestry and Natural Resources. Before working in the WRL, he was a full-time furniture maker and an engineer at Wabash designing sheet steel, stainless, and aluminum parts and assemblies. 
 
He has a vast knowledge of woodworking joinery, machinery, finishing, hand tools, and wood. In his spare time, he can be found in his nicely equipped workshop next to his house making contemporary furniture, sculptures, boxes, and bowls. Some of his sculptures are on display in Armstrong Hall at Purdue.
