The IMH division manufactures components for various automotive, off-highway, and industrial applications. The EFS division manufactures components used in medical equipment, diagnostics, and scientific instruments.

Dan supports the teams within each division by looking for ways to continuously improve, advocating for groups, sharing best practices, and innovating new solutions for customers.

Prior to joining The Lee Company, he graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Mechanical Engineering from Northeastern University. He later earned a Master of Business Administration from RPI at the Hartford Graduate Center with The Lee Company’s Tuition Assistance Plan.

Dan has been with The Lee Company for over 20 years and has experience in both engineering and management roles. Before becoming an Executive Vice President, Dan’s roles included Project Engineer, Manufacturing Engineer, Manufacturing Manager, Vice President of the PRI group, and Vice President of the Screen group.

Dan is very proud of his former Screen group team and their exceptional work on Lights Out Manufacturing (LOM), an automated manufacturing process enabling overnight production. Expanding LOM has benefited The Lee Company by enhancing safety, productivity, quality, and job enrichment. This was a major achievement that Dan oversaw and the efforts continue today in all areas of the company.
