Meet Dan!

Dan has been a dedicated member of Ottawa Township High School since 2012, serving first as the school librarian and then as a classroom teacher and coach. He approaches each day with a passion for helping students and athletes grow academically and personally, striving to create an engaging and supportive environment where critical thinking and curiosity thrive.

Outside of work, Dan is a proud parent to two amazing children, Brennen and Ryland. His wife, Nicole, is also a teacher and coach at Ottawa Elementary, sharing his enthusiasm for education and technology. When he’s not in teaching, coaching, or spending time with his family, Dan can often be found pounding the pavement enjoying a run around town.
