From Sunset Soiree to Blue Badge in a little less than one year. During his “Who Am I” talk, which all new members give to introduce themselves, Dan Austin noted that he was first introduced to the Rotary Club of Del Mar when club member Val Myers invited him to attend the 2016 Sunset Soiree. Dan said he enjoyed getting to know so many like-minded people and Val sponsored him for membership.
Dan grew up on the east coast in Syracuse and graduated from Syracuse University, after which he took positions specializing in broadcast media and marketing. Nearly two years ago Dan moved to the Del Mar area to take a job in radio broadcasting and 18 months ago he took over Del Mar Lifestyle magazine, for which he serves as editor. Del Mar Lifestyle is a community-focused magazine that reports on events and businesses in Del Mar and Carmel Valley.
Dan’s “Who Am I” speech was his last step in earning his Blue Badge and we’re all thrilled to have him as a member.
