Daniel Temmallo

Hey y’all! My name is Daniel, and I’m a junior (already??) majoring in political science and public and professional writing. Heralding from suburban Boston, I fell in love with the city of Pittsburgh, and am absolutely stoked to get the opportunities to help out our community here at Pitt. I’m a government and football nerd, so ask me about either and I’ll gladly get into a thirty minute discussion. I love rap music, burgers, photography, and am actually attempting to keep myself on a schedule this year. Feel free to come say hi while I’m on shift at Atarashi, sitting in the SGB office, or if you see me anywhere on campus. Have a great year, and as always, H2P!
