Off the Job

Outside of the office, you may find Daniel hobbling around a basketball court or looking for his lost golf ball. In their spare time, Daniel and his wife enjoy getaways where they can experience beaches (her), roller coasters (him), or unique destinations. Dessert is Daniel’s favorite meal of the day. He often prefers to watch the movie than read the book.
