Dan assists members of Georgia's general assembly in drafting economic development legislation that has become law in the state of Georgia.

In addition, Dan's White Papers and PowerPoint presentations and Quick Takes (a newsletter about latest developments in economic and finance) are sought after by both public sector and private sector leaders providing information on various matters in economic development and community development.
