Dan Gill

Born on July 8, 1982, Dan Gill is an American, who is now a retired gymnast. The web forum company, Huddler, has him as their Chief Executive Officer now. He is an example of a perfect inspiration. However, his rings and parallel bars are comparatively weaker than other events. His skills displayed an exceptional instance when he achieved a tremendously challenging mount. He descended with a sporadic, problematic trick, which amazed him greatly. He completed his schooling at James Robinson High School. The ‘wow’ moment came in his life when he scored a 10.0 in the Virginia Athletics. He set a national record for the school championship. Gill was a club gymnast under Coach Carlos Vasquez at the Burke’s Capital Gymnastics. In the year 2001-2004, he completed his education at Stanford. That time he was called an all- American. He also had an encounter with David Durante. In the year 2001, at the NCCA Championship, he took away the vault. Following in 2004, he emerged as the captain of the team and victoriously won the silver. The same year, Gill accomplished the Nissen-Emery Award, the Heisman of men's gymnastics. The US National team took him as a member in 2003 and that year the team won a Pan American bronze medal. In the analogous year, at the National Championship, he ended 11th in the round. He was sixth on floor exercise, then fifth on vault. The 2004 Nationals saw him winning the silver, and this was his ticket to the Olympics. His magnificent presentation of his skills held back everyone.

He was able to move from the 12th to the 7th position, but then one drastic fall brought about many changes. The athletics in his life was more than enough, and he now wanted to acquire something that could bring about changes in his life. Since he had pursued his career in Biology, he thus prearranged his vocation as a physician. Instead of this, he went up to Silicon Valley where he was surrounded by start-ups and left medicine. After much effort, he found Huddler. He was able to accumulate $17 million in venture funding. Gill has faith that because of his gymnastics he has been able to handle things patiently. He is the son of Thom and Lorna. He considers his father and brothers as his role model due to the very fact that the latter is hardworking and intelligent. In gymnastics, he looks up to John Roethlisberger as his icon because of his unmatched skills and perseverance.
