Before coming ashore in 1995 to start FairWeather Group, Dan spent almost 20 years traveling the world’s oceans as a navigator on merchant ships. During his travels, he visited every US state except for North Dakota, and every country in the Western Hemisphere except for Bolivia and Paraguay. All three places are, of course, far from the ocean. The attention to detail required for navigation and the problem-solving skills required to safely manage a ship both prepared him to solve the problems of growing small businesses.

I ensure that our clients can use Smartsheet in their day-to-day operations, and assist them in mastering the three core features: sheets, reports, and dashboards. Smartsheet shines when the data is correctly entered into the sheets, then compiled in properly configured reports, then displayed and shared throughout the company on a dashboard. I also assist our clients in the internal use of Trainual so that their employees can capture their policies, processes, and procedures.
