Hi there! I’m Daniel, a senior at Dartmouth College seeking opportunities in broadcast journalism. Most recently, I was an intern and freelance national reporter and producer for NPR. At Dartmouth, I have served as the News Director for Dartmouth College Radio WDCR News since fall 2020 and I have been a reporter and producer since spring 2019.
Also on WDCR I co-host a variety talk and music show that has tackled hot-button topics in current events, politics and pop culture every week for over two years. And on Dartmouth Broadcasting’s commercial station, 99Rock WFRD-FM, I was a rock DJ before the station was sold.
Off campus, I produced Seasons 1 and 2 of The Campaign Workshop’s podcast, How to Win a Campaign.
Thanks for visiting my site! Please check out the other pages for work samples and to learn more about my work at NPR, at WDCR and on the podcast.
