A steady hand for Dublin schools
Fiscal responsibility
A steady advocate for balanced budgets, so every dollar goes toward a high-quality education for Dublin students. Decades of contract and engineering expertise help stretch every tax dollar further.
Delivers on promises
From Emerald High School to Shamrock Hills K-8, Dan has helped turn growing enrollment into real classroom seats — on sites chosen with the community's safety and needs in mind.
Independent voice
Nearly two decades of service with no ties to special interest groups — Dan represents Dublin families first, from board meetings to bond oversight.
Built for a growing Dublin
Emerald High School
Dan was a driving force behind opening Dublin's newest comprehensive high school, now serving roughly 2,400 students in East Dublin. He also pushed hard on where it would go — successfully steering the site away from land next to the Dublin jail, and toward a location that better serves students and families.
Shamrock Hills K-8
As Dublin's neighborhoods have grown, Dan has championed a new, walkable K-8 school at Shamrock Hills — giving local families a school within reach of home instead of a longer commute across town.
Bond oversight & fiscal discipline
As Chair of the DUSD Citizens' Bond Oversight Committee, Dan has kept a close eye on how voter-approved facilities dollars are spent — insisting on accountability at every step.
