BIO
Make them comfortable, listen to the details, exude confidence and, above all, keep them laughing.  These have been keys to Dan’s success for more than ten years as a top catering sales representative at Feastivities.  He’s always been a performer.  From the courtroom as a former lawyer, to inspiring students and soon to be Chefs at Widener and Temple Universities and the Restaurant School of Philadelphia and now in his fifth year as an educator at Catersource, his passion is to teach others through entertainment.  In his current role at Director of Operations, outside of his responsibilities to keep this nationally recognized and award winning company running smoothly, Dan most enjoys motivating the sales team and mentoring aspiring planners.  You may also find him at a local open mic night near you.
