Daniel Green, Managing Editor

Fall 2014

Daniel Green is a third year member of Talon Marks and the current Managing Editor. He started as the Associate News Editor and later became News Editor.

He was born back east in Waterbury, Connecticut and moved to California as a baby. Even though he wasn’t born here he considers California his home. He lived in Vermont during his teenage years learning snow is overrated and that California’s one season is superior to the four seasons the rest of the country shares.

In his off time he enjoys exercising, exploring new places, being with friends and reading. Daniel believes dogs are the best pets but cat are acceptable. He likes movies and comics and will argue about Spider-man with anyone.

Daniel also looks forward to the day he will finally vanquish his foe Carlos Holguin from the face of the Earth.
