Dan O’Mahony
MANAGING DIRECTOR, INKHOUSE WEST
Dan is based in San Francisco where he oversees all of Inkhouse West from a growth, team empowerment and services perspective. During his tenure at Inkhouse Dan has worked with seed stage startups, growth-stage startups, Fortune 500 companies and venture capital firms.
Dan balances strategic, high-level thinking with rolling up his sleeves and getting work done. He believes that involvement in tactical execution on his teams helps him provide better strategic counsel, and vice versa. He also has never lost that “thrill of the hit” feeling and loves getting coverage for his clients. The best part of the job for Dan is when co-workers and clients become friends—a deep level of trust makes the work more fun, and more effective.
Prior to joining Inkhouse, Dan worked at LaunchSquad and before that he worked at MSL San Francisco (formerly Schwartz Communications). Dan holds a bachelor’s degree in journalism with a public relations focus from California State University, Chico.
