Andrew Rybarczyk
Owner
Hi, my name is Andrew and I'm the owner of COASTER-net. Since joining the site, I've been truly impressed with both the way things are run and the quality of information presented. I hope to continue this tradition but also take COASTER-net to a new level of excellence. I'm especially excited about the prospect of expanding COASTER-net in regards to flat rides, water parks and haunts. Hauntoverse is my pet project and I look forward to bringing you the latest news and opinions about all of this year's offerings made by all the major amusement parks.
A little bit about myself:
I've been riding roller coasters for at least 25 years. I've been going to CP every year on family vacations since 1992. Even though I live closer to other parks, CP will always be my home. A few years ago, I decided to expand my horizons and start attending as many theme parks as possible. Since then I've had some great experiences and have met some great people. I'm excited to talk about all of it right here now!

Danny Miller
YouTube Host
I'm Danny Miller, from Schnecksville, PA, about 15 minutes or so from Dorney Park. If you listen to the Coasterradio.com podcast you may recognize me as "Dan The T-Shirt Guy." I mainly contribute with photographs and COASTER-net Uncut on YouTube with Andy. I also assist with the yearly COASTER-net Calendar and run the annual COASTER-net Roller Coaster Poll and the Thrilling 32 Bracket Challenge.
I worked on Talon at Dorney during the 2011 season, and in the Possessed group for the 2012 season. I originally got into coasters way back in elementary school when a buddy of mine introduced me to Roller Coaster Tycoon. Since I have played around with all versions of the game and the expansion packs, as well as doing some fairly detailed projects in NoLimits when I am able to grab some free time.
Currently I have been to 101 parks all over the U.S. and Canada, and I have ridden 512 coasters (111 Wood, 401 Steel). I am also an ACE member as well as a member of Coaster Crew. Away from the parks, I am an new product development engineer for a division of Toyota, and spend most of my free time playing/watching hockey when not at the parks . I own over 100 hockey jerseys alongside my over 250 coaster/park t-shirts as well as some artifacts from the parks.

Jeff Goodman
News Editor
Hi, my name is Jeff Goodman and I work for COASTER-net. I started out working on articles in the ride gallery, and building pages for new rides on the website. My main role has been to update the site’s news section, and occasionally write up breaking news items. I also enjoy sharing my thoughts and opinions as our blogger posting about my coaster experiences, predictions, and enthusiasm.
Outside of COASTER-net I have a family and I am a father of my little girl who I hope will enjoy going to parks as a family as she gets older. I grew up on Long Island and my first park was Adventureland. I could never get enough, so I always begged as a child to go on vacation somewhere where we could go to an amusement park. My wife and I have been slowly expanding our reach going to more and more parks and enjoying new rides. We also enjoy seeing live music and typically if we are going on a road trip it is for roller coasters or a concert. I look forward to exploring more in the future and meeting more COASTER-net members.

Daniel Westfall
Community Manager
Hello, my name is Daniel Westfall, I serve as the community manager, meaning that I oversee our Club forums, Discord server, and affiliated Facebook groups and other communities. I strive to make sure that these communities reflect the values, mission, and vision of the COASTER-net brand and that our staff in these areas represent and serve our community well.
I also assist with the "business" side of things as needed to make sure that everything is taken care of so that the community can relax and have fun. You won't see my face much, but if you want to talk to me, become a Patron and join our Discord community. I'm usually in our voice chats most evenings and would love to get to know you.
Taking care of the Community also means taking care of the staff that serve the Community as I help to mentor them and make sure that they are equipped to serve you. I may not always be "visible" as the other staff that appear on YouTube, but I'm always here if you need me. I appreciate every one of you that's a member of our Community, especially our dedicated staff that make everything possible and our Patrons that support the site. We couldn't do it without them.
