While balancing work, family, friends, their perennial tech support, and countless live music shows, he has continued to find time to volunteer at his son’s school. That sense of community led him to shed the common belief that Los Angeles was a City of individuals. Valley Glen was just as much a community as anywhere he’d known. Encouraged by a neighbor and friend, he decided to jump into its Neighborhood Council head first in spring of 2020. The world was soon shaken by Covid-19 and the GVGC meetings, as so many other things, had to go virtual. His comfort with technology allowed him to help the Council make that transition smoothly. Or, as smoothly as these things can go! He soon was elected as the GVGC Vice-President, and when the need arose, our new President.

His goal is to maintain and support the community of Valley Glen, welcome as many of its members as he can, and be a voice for the local in the sea of the whole. And, back to the live music, he can invariably be found wearing one of the many TOOL t-shirts in his collection. Email him or look for the shirt and just say “Hi”!

In my 1 year on the council I got stop signs installed at dangerous Erwin/Ventura Cyn, lights along the perimeter of Erwin Elem School, and had a fence put up around the school parking lot to stop illicit activity that was going on.

I am a stay at home dad with a 4 year old and I work from home for a low vision technology company.

I am passionate about education, my wife is a teacher. I am legally blind and am a strong advocate for the disabled. I have a good relationship with our senior lead officer and city councilman.

Dan Stueve recently purchased his first home and is a resident of Valley Glen. He is a Southern California native living here his entire life. He joined the Greater Valley Glen Council to be an active and positive member of community and find a way to volunteer his time and give back to the city.

Dan is the CEO | Team Leader of Keller Williams Encino-Sherman Oaks and Harma Real Estate, the #1 individual real estate brokerage in the SFV by units and volume with over $1.3 Billion in volume and 1,342 units sold last year.

Prior to his career in real estate, Dan spent fourteen years in family law helping clients through divorce, child custody, conservatorships, guardianships, and personal injury cases. He has a Bachelor of Arts degree in communication studies from California State University, Los Angeles. He grew up on a dairy farm in Chino, California and is the youngest grandson of the founder of Alta Dena Certified Dairy.

Additionally, Dan has a history of public service, having served as a Community Services Commissioner for the City of Chino for three years, also serving as the commission’s Vice-Chairman and was a founding board member of the Chino Youth Museum. Joining the Greater Valley Glen Council is an exciting return for him in getting back involved in the community.

My wife and I purchased our home in Valley Glen in 2019. We have 3 cats (Jack, Harley, Tuna), 1 dog (Piper), and our son London. We love our neighborhood and feel so lucky to have met such wonderful neighbors over the past couple years. This is not just my home, it’s our home and I want to work to ensure our neighborhood is safe, diverse, and inclusive of all voices. 

Valley Glen has been my home from maidenhood to motherhood and in that transition I have realized many ways we can make our community safer and more enjoyable for all our neighbors. I want to advocate for pedestrian safety for our neighborhood streets, support small businesses that make us diverse and unique, and I want to provide resources to our unhoused neighbors so we can be a part of the solution for LA’s growing housing crisis. I promise to keep our community informed about our efforts, listen to the concerns of my constituents, and work with neighboring councils, so that together we can make not only Valley Glen a better place, but all of LA a better place.

Awaiting Bio

I have lived in Valley Glen since 2006. I am on the GVGC because I am interested in serving my community. I currently serve our community on the Van Nuys Community Police Advisory Board and sit on the Greater Valley Glen Neighborhood Council. I believe more than ever is the time our community needs more citizen involvement. I am looking forward to continuing to serve our Valley Glen community.

My name is Daniel Lopez and I am a long term resident and stakeholder in Valley Glen – I live right across the street from Burbank Blvd Elementary! We have so many issues facing our communities and regions – increased homelessness, public safety concerns, skyrocketing housing prices and a woeful transportation network for the Valley and our region. I hope to work on these issues and so many other issues with the NC Board. As a LA native and a renter in this increasingly unaffordable city, I hope to play a active role on making my community better instead sitting on the sidelines – I am looking forward to getting in the arena and getting my hands dirty.

I am a man who has great respect for the land that I have and I want to apply that same respect and dedication to the Greater Valley Glen Community. I believe that hard work and care is needed to create a clean and healthy neighborhood and I would like to represent you in this endeavor. I have 3 citrus trees and 2 gardens that require a nurturing and vigilant caretaker to ensure a fruitful harvest; one must get in the dirt, dig out the weeds from the root and carefully prune to keep a lush garden growing strong. I will care for the safety and well being of this community as I have with my garden while taking steps to preserve its natural beauty and make this neighborhood one we all can be proud to call home.

I want to represent the needs of our people in Greater Valley Glen. Too often I find that politicians at all levels are out of touch with the concerns of their constituents, and I feel compelled to change that. In my time in the neighborhood I have been so happy making a home here. You may see me walking my beautiful husky Luna around, so don’t be afraid to say hello! In my day to day life I split my time between acting, being a marketing manager for a tech company, and doing whatever I can to help the people of this city fight for their rights. I am also endorsed by Streets For All; an organization fighting for street safety as well as working to expand public transport. It’s important to me that our neighborhood council makes tangible decisions that benefit the people of our neighborhood. We should use our power advising City Council to speak to the needs of our neighbors on issues such as transportation, homelessness, covid relief, etc
