Daniel, Deacon (Chair/Treasurer)

My name is Daniel, and I serve as the Deacon Chair and Treasurer of Steel Valley Church. My primary responsibilities include organizing the Deacon Team and managing projects that are being done. Additionally, I handle all the financial needs of the church as well. I currently live in Girard with my wife, Esther, and our daughter, Carmel— who’s named after the mountain in the Bible. Throughout the week, I work as an Industrial/Organizational Psychologist, which is very similar to HR. I have a B.A. in Psychology from Grove City College, and an M.A. in Industrial Organizational Psychology from the University of Akron. Overall, I love to help organize churches in God-honoring ways and am also passionate about theology and Christian living.
