He attended the Hill School in Pottstown PA, which at the time was an all-boys boarding school that has since become a co-ed school.

There he became COO with about 1,200 employees under his supervision. He worked with many of the large banks and lenders in the country and was with the company for approximately 8 years before taking on the role of COO at Agent06. Bill’s wife, Angela Barnshaw started Agent06 in 2012 and with Bill’s transition over to the company in 2014, his skill set and past work experiences helped to run and grow the company. Their long term goal is to take Agent06 national!

 

Bill and Angela are also proud parents finally! In 2016 they were presented with a unique and blessed opportunity (with less than 24 hours notice) to foster twin baby girls that were only 27 days old at the time.

Dan Keashen
Director of Public Affairs - Camden County

In 2012, Dan Keashen was hired to work on one of the most impactful projects in New Jersey’s legislative history- building a new county run police department from the ground up to provide front line policing services for the City of Camden. At the time, the city was the most dangerous and poorest municipality in the nation per capita. That year, Camden broke a record for homicides and according to the 2011 U.N. Crime and Homicide report had violent crime metrics comparable to Honduras and Guatemala.  Once assimilated into his new role, Dan’s duties consisted of all external communications, media relations and messaging for the new agency and to oversee the transition from one department to another. On May 1, 2013, the new agency launched, and since that period of time he has worked closely with two police executives, Chief Scott Thomson, Chief Joe Wysocki and Chief Gabriel Rodriguez to manage the public affairs functions of the department on top of the rest of his duties within Camden County. Through Dan’s strong hand he’s helped guide the agency through the transitions, attain positive media coverage and improve public perception of the city through a community policing model U.S. President Barack Obama praised in 2015 as “a symbol of hope for the nation.” Dan has worked closely with hundreds of journalists on the international and national stage, which includes the NBC Nightly News, New York Times, Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, USA Today, CBS Evening News, the Today Show, Good Morning America, NPR and several cable news hosts and programs. Internationally, Dan has worked with the U.S. Foreign Press Service through the U.S. State Department hosting reporters from 62 different countries who traveled to Camden, NJ. Other international outlets who have visited the CCPD include the BBC, Le Monde, Der Spiegel and the CBC amongst others. While policing and the law enforcement landscape has evolved over the last ten years Dan has worked to keep the CCPD engrossed in the national conversation on culture, policy and accountability. Prior to joining Camden County, Dan was a general assignment reporter for several publications in the Delaware Valley and worked as the Chief of Staff to the Mayor of Cherry Hill Township, NJ for six years. Dan’s career spans more than 20 years in journalism and public affairs where he continues to manage one of the important stories of policing in the nation, the turnaround of Camden City, NJ.
