I worked with Dan at two different software companies. He had an uncanny knack for learning software intuitively. He could learn the features of software seemingly through osmosis. We won a lot of deals because of Dan. He was one of the best in the industry. He believed in Jesus and evangelized even at work. Condolences to his family.
