Hi. I'm Dan. I currently work as the Digital Content Director for ABC News Radio.
Previously, I coved the United Nations daily as the Chief UN Correspondent for the Talk Radio News Service. I also served as TRNS's Social Media Evangelist.
I now work on content development and strategy for ABC News Radio, and explain social media to traditional media outlets. I've also produced the internet radio programme / podcast know as Creepy Sleepy since 2004.
