Hello. I’m Dan Weber and I am a creative leader with over 25 years of advertising experience, with the last 8 years dedicated to healthcare. My passion for creating exceptionally meaningful work for people in need of healthcare solutions - especially those living with a rare disease - is driven by the extraordinary stories I hear every day. Inspiring and guiding those who are just as passionate as I am is the highlight of my career. I look forward to continuing to set benchmarks for creative grounded in high science and elevated by human emotion.
