Daniel had a smile for every single person he met. He was kind, funny, generous and had a wicked sense of humor. He made small moments joyful and loved his time at Cornell. Daniel made friends everywhere he went with his easy demeanor and his curiosity and appetite for life was infectious. Originally from Southern California, he used to say he was born on the West Coast but grew up in New York.

Cornell's Class of 2007 was special. We were all there for each other during one of the most formative times in our lives and we all left campus with bright eyes and big hopes for the future. Dan tried Big Law and decided he wanted to live his life on his terms, in his own time, while enjoying himself. He eventually went back home to California and built a big, beautiful life full of family.

He was out running errands for that family - his wife and his three month old daughter - when he was killed in an a car accident.

Now, our favorite alum needs our help. He needs us to step in where he can't and help provide for his wife and baby girl.

Please donate and when doing so, think about every time he made you smile, every time you got through a rough time because his presence made things just a little bit better. Think about every interaction, every song, every movie, every moment you spent with him and remember his daughter will never get the blessing of time with him that we all had.

Thanks in advance.
