Meet Daniel

I am a technology specialist with two decades of experience building and supporting high-availability, high-precision systems for the tolling and intelligent transportation industry. Leveraging my background in systems engineering, administration, and networking, I align complex field deployments with enterprise-level reliability, ensuring that critical systems remain scalable, accurate, and operationally resilient.

My superpowers are: 

Risk mitigation and standards enforcement; ensuring transportation vendors’ emerging technologies undergo rigorous technical validation to meet mission-critical safety and performance requirements.

When I am not at work: 

I enjoy the outdoors a lot--the ocean, mountains, woods. Since the first two are far away, I try to get out on the trails often, whether I’m hiking, running, or on a bike. Lately, I’ve been spending a lot of time gardening. There’s just something about nurturing a plant from a seed to something substantial while creating a mini habitat for all sorts of life. 

Favorite quote or saying: 

If you want to be happy for a lifetime, plant a garden.

Why I love EPIC: 

I love my current assignment at EPIC because once I clock out, the work stays at the office—no taking it home with me!
