SIMERLINK, Daniel

Dan was born in Kettering, Ohio, on March 12, 1963, and graduated from Beavercreek High School in 1981. In high school he was active in track, ran cross country, and achieved the honored rank of Eagle Scout. He earned his BA in

Economics from Wright State University in 1988 and continued on to earn an MBA in 2001 and a PhD in Knowledge

Management in 2011. Over his career, he worked for several companies as a digital marketing analyst and consultant. He also fulfilled his passion for teaching as an adjunct professor of business at Indiana

Wesleyan University. Dan loved spending time with his family, especially his children, with whom he enjoyed experiencing new adventures. He was active in several churches throughout his life and engaged in many volunteer activities centered around teaching financial independence and alleviating

generational poverty through economic empowerment. He enjoyed playing guitar, engaged in daily exercise, strengthened his spirit through prayer and daily walks near the ocean, and had a passion for learning anything new, which he gladly shared with others.
