Dan has been a post-doc­tor­al fel­low at the Carnegie Insti­tu­tion at Stan­ford Uni­ver­si­ty, and is cur­rent­ly a AAAS Fel­low in Wash­ing­ton, DC.  He is inter­est­ed in the deploy­ment and com­mer­cial­iza­tion of tech­nolo­gies that sig­nif­i­cant­ly reduce ener­gy-relat­ed CO2 emis­sions or remove CO2 from the atmos­phere. Daniel’s work and engage­ment spans the aca­d­e­m­ic, non­govern­men­tal, and gov­ern­men­tal sec­tors. He recent­ly com­plet­ed a post­doc­tor­al research fel­low­ship with the Carnegie Insti­tu­tion for Sci­ence work­ing with Drs. Chris Field and Katharine Mach. Daniel has pre­vi­ous­ly held posi­tions with the Advanced Research Projects Agency-Ener­gy (ARPA‑E), Green for All, and the Cal­i­for­nia Pub­lic Util­i­ties Commission.

He holds a Ph.D. and M.S. from the Ener­gy and Resources Group at the Uni­ver­si­ty of Cal­i­for­nia-Berke­ley, and a B.S.E. in Chem­i­cal and Bio­mol­e­c­u­lar Engi­neer­ing from the Uni­ver­si­ty of Pennsylvania.
