He graduated from Divine Child High School and Michigan State University.

Career

He was also the runner-up of 14. Gheesling had close friendships with Brian, Libra, Memphis, Keesha, Steven, Angie and Renny. Gheesling and his closest friend in the house, Memphis, formed an alliance and named it "The Renegades".

He was voted by viewers for America"s Player (for Week 4 only).

He accepted the offer. Dan"s tasks were to get Jessie nominated, hug Jessie for ten seconds, and vote for Jessie in the eviction ceremony.

Gheesling succeeded in all three and earned $30,000. Dan had also been the victim of constant attacks from Jerry, with Jerry repeatedly referring to Dan as a "Judas" and accusing him of "hiding behind his cross." Jerry even stated at the veto meeting that he wanted Dan on the block because he believed he is a "Judas," to which Dan simply replied, "I understand." Jerry didn"t use the veto that week.

After turning on a deal made with Ollie, Dan nominated Michelle as a replacement when Memphis saved himself.

This was followed by Ollie thrashing items in the house and directing homophobic slurs towards both Dan and Memphis. When Jerry subsequently became HoH, Dan was nominated alongside Keesha. He chose to take his alliance member and closest friend Memphis to the finale.

14

Dan returned to play the game a second time for "14" as a coach or "mentor," playing for his own separate prize ($100,000) along with three other returning houseguests.

After the first four houseguests left the game in season 14, the coaches were offered the chance by America to re-enter the game as main players and houseguests. Dan was one of three coaches, along with Britney and Janelle, who accepted the offer to become a player in 14.

Mike "Boogie" Malin chose not to become a player, but was compelled to do so when production dictated that if any one of the coaches chose to enter the game as a player, every one of them must. Thus, the coaches joined in the competition with the new house guests for the main $500,000 prize.

He also holds the record to play the game twice and only exit on finale night.

However, he ultimately lost in a 6-1 vote to Ian Terry, becoming the runner-up of 14. After, Dan wrote four books
