About the Author

Dan Nielsen is a successful leader, entrepreneur, teacher, author and speaker. A perpetual student, Dan understands the incredible power of learning from successful leaders and strongly believes that leadership excellence is the key to all lasting progress and success. Dan spent much of his career as a healthcare executive, serving for fifteen years as the President and CEO of Dallas-Ft. Worth Medical Center, and nearly fifteen years as the lead executive responsible for the national education and networking strategies and activities of VHA, America's largest hospital and healthcare national alliance. Dan is now a leader, speaker, and author with a broad area of interest. He is passionate about helping others reach their potential and achieve greater success, no matter who you are or how you define it. He regularly writes and speaks about achieving greater success, becoming a better leader, and living an inspired and joy-filled life. In addition to his speaking and writing, Dan regularly travels throughout America the Beautiful in his motorhome, which he calls his "Inspirational Vehicle" due to the many opportunities for inspiration that it provides him. He is an avid hobby photographer, and has taken more than 185,000 photographs all across America, many of which he incorporates into his writing and presentations. Dan has two grown children and two grandchildren and lives with his wife, Faye, near Dallas, Texas. When not at home or out in his Inspirational Vehicle, he can usually be found at "his" coffee shop or walking at the gym and brainstorming about his next big project.

I am passionate about communication – especially through the written word. I believe that words are powerful, and when used well, can be extremely influential. Through a few dozen well-chosen words within a couple carefully crafted sentences, I have the power to inspire, move, persuade, convict, and so much more. I currently am a writer and content developer for Dan Nielsen, an inspirational speaker and author. I am privileged to have co-authored a book with Dan, titled Presidential Leadership: Learning from United States Presidential Libraries & Museums, which was published in 2013. We are currently working on a second book together. In addition to my work with Dan, when I have time I pursue writing as a hobby, publishing blog posts on my personal website (but it's been awhile since I've had time!) My dream job is to be a full-time mom and a part-time writer—which is what I currently do! I am passionate about living a life committed to God’s leading, and I love helping others along on the same journey. I am married to an incredible man of God, and we have a beautiful little girl who is teaching us how to be parents.
