Dan was born in Mount Holly, New Jersey, on December 29, 1969. He grew up with his brother Michael in Mount Holly and neighboring Moorestown before moving to Lancaster, Pennsylvania during grade school. Dan attended St. Leo the Great, and then Hempfield High School, where he was a standout track-and-field athlete. Dan received his undergraduate degree from Gettysburg College, and he earned his Juris Doctor at the Dickinson School of Law.

Dan then joined Nastlaw LLC, based in Philadelphia, where he worked on a number of national mass tort and antitrust cases.

Dan loved to fish, a passion he discovered in early childhood through his grandfather, and one which he pursued throughout his life at destinations all over the world. When at home, Dan could often be found checking the daily bluefish reports. Dan also loved Philadelphia sports, especially the Phillies and Eagles. He was particularly fond of his cats, of which he had many over the years. He was an avid skier and ping-pong player. He loved to travel internationally and spend time with his family and friends.
