Dan has been a celebrity gamer for years… according to Dan! 😉

His two followers on his Twitch stream will attest to this. Dan started off his career in online gambling New Jersey, as a Poker Manager for various online poker sites.

He then transitioned to where his passion lies - eSports! - by joining an eSports coaching start-up in Boston, Gamer Sensei, as the Community Manager. Dan was a top 100 North American Starcraft 1 player during his college years at Carnegie Mellon. He even attempted to go professional until his parents forced him to focus on academics until graduation. He is currently ranked 403rd in North America for Hearthstone! His biggest achievement is hitting Legend status in Hearthstone. Apart from this, Dan loves pizza, music and exploring the city in his new home in Las Vegas! He’s had problems with his pool though, we hear about it a lot.
