Dan Weckerly is the editor of MONTCO Today, happily bringing positive, upbeat stories to not only readers but neighbors; Weckerly has been a Montgomery County native since 1988.
He is a graduate of St. Joseph's University and was part of its second-ever study abroad program at an academic offshoot of the University of London.
Weckerly's communication chops come from service not only in journalism — he was once a film critic for a Bryn Mawr-based daily and covered PR issues as a Lehigh Valley Business columnist — but in brand-building storytelling.
Past employers include Unisys Corp. (Blue Bell), Automated Financial Systems (Exton), The Valley Forge Tourism & Convention Board (King of Prussia), and a creative agency in the Lehigh Valley.
His work has been recognized throughout his career, including industry accolades from the Public Relations Society of America, the Life Communicators Association, PR News, and the American Association of Marketing & Communication Professionals.
He has also served on the boards of directors for several communications-related organizations.
When not crafting catchy copy, Weckerly's pastimes include rooting for the Philadelphia Eagles, listening to classical music, stewing over the New York Times Crossword Puzzle, and walking his Yellow Labrador Retriever. To contact Dan, e-mail dweckerly@montco.today.
