Hi there! My name is Dan and I write stuff. A while back I road-tripped to all 50 states to find the best mini golf course in America. But I've also done a ton of other great stuff for a ton of great people!
​
As a writer, I've contributed to The New York Times, The New Yorker, McSweeney's, Vulture, Funny Or Die, Slackjaw, Weekly Humorist, Mic, Points in Case, The New York Times Crossword Puzzle, and many other great sites.
Beyond that, I have been featured by the Daily Mail, Uproxx, Lonely Planet, The A.V. Club (“Hilariously discerning in its critique”), Golf Digest, theCHIVE, and BroBible ("This bro named Dan").
​
In addition, I was a writer and actor for The Princeton Triangle Club and the Managing Editor for the Princeton Tiger, the nation's third oldest collegiate humor magazine.
​
I have also written a large number of sketches, songs, full-length musicals, and 250-page-long "Choose Your Own Adventure" musicals for the Second City Chicago, iO Chicago, the Princeton Theater Department, the Princeton University Players, Theatre Intime, and Playdate Sketch Comedy.
