Dan Schultz is a sophomore at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, where he is studying Information Systems. His professional experience has been limited to technically oriented internships, but he is known among friends for his independent work on dynamic web systems. Schultz began exploring the potential of the Internet as a community facilitator during his freshman year of high school. He built a forum and polling system from scratch, which he has used as an outlet for his talents in Information Systems. In pursuing his undergraduate degree from CMU, he is considering minors in Computer Science, Mathematical Sciences, and Policy and Management. He plans to improve his abilities as a programmer and a thinker and looks forward to taking on some of the creative challenges that lie ahead for this field.
