Coding by day and designing by night, Dan is a bit of an anomaly. Touring-musician-turned-independent web designer and developer, Dan has spent the last five years building sites primarily for nonprofits, foundations, boutique businesses, and socially conscious brands. Formerly, Dan operated under his business, Opus Media Solutions. In addition to steering the ethosLA ship, Dan continues to pursue his passion for music by playing occasionally in LA.

As ethosLA's founder and design and dev lead, Dan extracts each client’s ‘why’ and larger vision, while simultaneously attending to each detail. His thoughtful approach and commitment to excellence is visible throughout each client relationship and project deliverable. When not building sites or jamming, you can find Dan playing soccer or cheering on Manchester United at a local pub in his East LA neighborhood.

When not brainstorming, you can find Kristen walking her dog in her Los Feliz neighborhood, or eating guacamole with friends.
