He spent four years with Youth with a Mission (YWAM), studying and working in several countries including South Africa, India, New Zealand and Ghana.

The college trains people for ministry within southern Africa. He is also travelling to various parts of South Africa doing seminars and workshops with youth leaders to stimulate local church youth ministry.
Dan enjoys outdoor activities such as hiking, running and tennis. To relax he plays the guitar, hangs out with friends, watches films and is an avid reader. He also loves spicy food.
