Daniel Bral DO MPH, MSc

Summary

• I’m primarily a chronically caffeinated emergency medicine resident physician. I am also the Chair-Elect of the Toxicology Committee of the Emergency Medicine Resident’s Association (EMRA). I serve as the Chairman of the Young People's Advisory Committee for Teen Cancer America, an organization dedicated to improving the lives of teens and young adults with cancer. I also sit on the Board of Directors for Kids Kicking Cancer, an organization which, through martial arts, is giving peace, power, and purpose back to kids, teens, and young adults with cancer.
  
  I speak four languages (trying to learn a 5th: Portuguese) and own a Starbucks Gold Card, through which I sometimes believe I may be single-handedly holding up their stock.
  
  I march to the drumbeat exemplified by the following quote by Steve Jobs: "The people who are crazy enough to think they can change the world are the ones who do."
  
  I’m always interested in connecting with other leaders, medical professionals and executives, and interesting creative folk so please reach out and connect!
