Living with Eosinophilic Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (EGPA)/Churg Strauss Syndrome

Dan serves as a partner at a boutique consulting firm, helping mid-sized companies unlock sustainable profitability. A graduate of the United States Naval Academy, he went on to serve as a Navy pilot before earning his MBA from Dartmouth’s Tuck School of Business and advising clients as a management consultant at McKinsey & Company.

In 2019, Dan’s life changed when he was diagnosed with eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis vasculitis. He received care from an exceptional, multidisciplinary team of practitioners and vasculitis experts whose coordination and expertise enabled him to achieve remission and return to his professional and personal life.

As an active volunteer with the Vasculitis Foundation, Dan works to expand partnerships, raise awareness, and strengthen support for patients and families affected by vasculitis.
