Our Team

Dan graduated from the University of Arizona in 1985 with a B.S. in Microbiology and from Hofstra University's Graduate School of Business in 1990 with an MBA in Accounting. He worked as a CPA with public accounting firm Price Waterhouse and has built successful companies in various fields including real estate and executive recruiting. Dan's passion for teaching and love for working with kids is rooted in family tradition. His mother was a highly regarded principal in Las Vegas for nearly 30 years. Dan has taught and tutored children of all ages and was a mentor for underprivileged children. Dan is committed to significantly increasing Las Vegas children's math skills, their understanding of math concepts and their overall school performance. "We provide lots of warm encouragement in a very positive learning environment so that children build their confidence and develop a winning attitude towards math. Our kids learn math in a way that makes sense to them. They get excited about math and this spirit carries over into everything they do."

Amanda has been part of the Mathnasium team since the Summerlin location opened in June 2008. She recently graduated with Summa Cum Laude Honors from University of Nevada, Las Vegas with a Bachelor’s Degree in Accounting. Throughout her schooling, Amanda always had a passion for math and has been thrilled to share that passion with the students at Mathnasium. She believes the most rewarding part of teaching math is the confidence that students obtain when they finally understand a concept. She attributes Mathnasium students’ success to the center’s positive environment and the Mathnasium Method, which teaches children math in a way that makes sense to them.
