Description
My name is Daniel and I am from Colorado. I’m married to the world’s most amazing woman and together we have two boys, ages 24 & 19.

I was a school teacher for 15 years before moving into IT. Since then I’ve been an IT manager, systems administrator and integration engineer.

Besides computers, I love the construction trades. My wife and I built our last home ourselves, doing almost all of the work ourselves. I’m proficient in framing, electrical, plumbing and HVAC. Just last month I rebuilt a shed for my new workshop.

Several years ago, my son and I traveled extensively in Switzerland, France and the UK doing Workaways. It was an amazing experience, one that we still talk about today.

I love animals and am especially good with dogs. We have a Golden Retriever and a Border Collie. We also fostered a little mutt named Kimber who decided we were acceptable humans.

I’m interested in any number of work situations, am always willing to get my hands dirty. I enjoy construction projects, animal care, farm chores, etc.

Anything you want to know..just ask!

Thanks!!

All I can say is Wow! What an incredible family! My 15 year old son and I stayed with Sonja, Daniel and the girls for 10 days.
