Northeast Representative Term 2021-2023 Dan Joseph Weld County Health Department I am originally from Illinois and ended up moving to Colorado to attend UNC. I earned a degree in environmental earth science with a minor in environmental studies. My studies required an internship and I found one with the Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment. Six months after graduating a position opened with Weld and I was hired. That was 22 years ago! My entire career has been with Weld, but it has allowed me to hold many different positions at many different levels giving me a lot of knowledge and relationships to draw upon. I love my new position, but retail food will always be close to my heart. When I am not working, I love playing sports (racquetball and hockey) and spending time with family and friends. I have been a member of CEHA for a long time and am happy to be part of the team.
