Kristin has been in Toastmasters since 2010. She finished her CC after 7 years (but not everyone takes that long). She joined Toastmasters after she saw two people at work with different speaking abilities. She enjoys the myriad of interesting speeches brought to the club.

Summer will be taking on the VP Education come July 1, 2026. She looks forward to serving our club in full capacity this coming year.

Dan found Toastmasters in 1983 to help climb the career ladder. He stepped away, and returned in 2017 to polish his mother's eulogy. He stayed because he realized his brain needed the workout—and because it’s surprisingly fun! Retired and active, Dan visits Beaverton's recreation centers daily. When he’s not speaking, you can find him tearing up the dance floor weekly with his wife or spinning tracks as the resident DJ for the Elsie Stuhr open dance. Dan is reprising his role as a president starting July 1, 2026. He has been president before in a prior club.
