Dan serves as an Outreach Tour Coordinator at Ends of the Earth Cycling, a ministry of New International. In 2016, Dan jumped in with Ends as the Tour Pastor on a Key West Bike Ride and his love for cycling and what Jesus is doing with Ends was born. Since then, Dan has served on multiple bicycling tours with Ends, primarily as an annual Ride Director. In 2024, Dan affiliated with New International as a response to God's leading and a faith commitment for global youth. Dan is passionate about seeing the lives of global youth impacted for the Kingdom. He is especially enthusiastic about doing outreach with Ends at iconic destination rides such as RAGBRAI in Iowa and the COGAP (C&O Canal and Great Allegheny Passage) in Maryland and Pennsylvania.

Ends Cycling is an active bicycling community impacting youth globally. We give people who want to change the world opportunities to use cycling to bring the hope of the Gospel to global youth through multi-day, Christ-centered bicycling tours. The U.S. has 90% of the world’s youth ministry resources, and only 4% of the world’s youth.  Ends Cycling believes everyone deserves the same access to the Gospel, and we're willing to go to the ends of the earth to see that vision fulfilled by the power of Christ.
