My name is Daniel Richter, and I am a Pricing Analyst at CAE, where I support pricing and proposal work for government and defense-related programs. I began my career in business development at Spectrum, where I gained experience in client outreach and early-stage pipeline development in strategic markets.

I’m a recent graduate of the University of Oklahoma and an alumnus of the JCPenney Leadership Program. While living in Dallas, I am looking to continue building my experience in finance and developing a strong foundation in my career.

I’m a proud graduate of the University of Oklahoma, where I studied International Business and Supply Chain Management at the Price College of Business. After spending three years in the corporate world, I returned to my roots to run my family’s casual fine dining restaurant in Norman, Oklahoma. With over eight years of hands-on experience in the fine-dining industry (server, manager, bartender, and everything in between), I’ve come to deeply value teamwork, loyalty, and attention to detail. I thrive in fast-paced, high-pressure environments and bring a solutions-oriented mindset to every challenge. Off the clock, you’ll find me running trails, making homemade pasta, sipping Cab, or mentally planning my restaurant order before I even walk through the door.
