Bio
John Padgett
I worked with Dan for a few years as a peer and he is a phenomenal business leader and partner. Dan is a seasoned executive that can see things from both a macro level and go all the way into the details of the operation. He continually drives for improvement for himself, his division, and his partners to ensure everyone delivers the best results possible. He is also a very good coach to his employees and others around him. I would work with Dan again and know he’ll do very well in any role he is in.

I have worked for Dan twice during my career and would go to work for him again a million times over. His ability to build a team, develop his employees, and his understanding of the business is unmatched. Dan is the definition of a driver, which is why he always delivers top results. I look forward to seeing what he accomplishes in the future.
