The Recreational Boating & Fishing Foundation (RBFF) added Z-Man Fishing Products President Daniel Nussbaum as its newest Board of Directors member.
Nussbaum joined Z-Man Fishing Products in 2008 as general manager and executive vice president and was promoted to company president in 2015.
“Daniel Nussbaum is an excellent addition to our Board of Directors, bringing a dynamic mix of knowledge and experience in the outdoors industry,” said RBFF President and CEO Dave Chanda. “His life-long passion for fishing is the foundation on which he’s achieved strong industry growth at Z-Man, and I know his enthusiasm and strategic outlook will be a valuable addition to our board. I’m glad to welcome him aboard.”
Growing up near the water in Charleston, SC, Nussbaum’s career started working on offshore fishing boats through high school and college, earning degrees in Biology and Environmental Policy. After attending the University of South Carolina School of Law and practicing law with a national civil defense firm for several years, Nussbaum left the legal profession to manage a fishing tackle shop and return to a career in the fishing industry. Today, Nussbaum serves on the Board of Directors of the American Sportfishing Association and its Trade Show, Marketing and Market Insights committees.
