I came to Patch in July 2010, having spent the previous five years at the Napa Valley Register, where I was the Online Editor and directed online editorial content for the Register. I spent a great deal of time with the online readers, listening to what they wanted of their online news site, and that's what I want to be able to do here with Patch.

If there is something you'd like to see with one of the North Bay Patch sites, just email me at dan@patch.com.
