    Birth to 10 Years: Trust vs. Mistrust, Autonomy vs Shame and Doubt, Initiative vs. Guilt and Industry vs. Inferiority

    I was born at the Shady Grove Adventist Hospital on October 28th 1993. Three years later my sister Sophie was born at the same hospital. The following year my family and I relocated from Potomac Maryland to Great Falls Virginia. I started kindergarten at Great Falls Elementary in 1999. I typically got along well with both my parents and teachers but they found me to be mischievous at times.

    Identity vs. Role Confusion

    After graduating from Great Falls Elementary and Cooper Middle School I went to Langley High School freshman year. After being dissatisfied with the extremely large school I transferred to Paul VI high school for my sophomore year. My junior year I transferred to Bullis and finished high school there. After high school I enrolled in ITT Tech. Learning from my room was great and it really prepared me for my future...... owning a gas station/ convenience store.
  • Broken Wrist

    Broken Wrist
    During a winter lacrosse game I severely broke my wrist. This injury required me to be in a cast for 5 months and to have surgery. I had to miss the whole spring season. These 5 months were very tough but they taught me that life isn't fair and you must learn to deal with adverse situations.

    Intimacy vs Isolation

    This is an extremely up and down period of my life. I do so well at ITT Tech that I graduate in just two years! I majored in convenience store management so naturally I bought the BP gas station in the Potomac village. Business was good the first few years but I found my self increasingly lonely, I needed a soul mate. One day I found her, she is Jordan Pingho's sister. I never learned her real name I just call her my Pingho mommy.

    Intimacy vs Isolation

    After my arrival in Iran my goal with all my newly acquired money was to over through the current Iranian government. What good is money without political power? After organizing a few demonstrations I became an enemy of the state. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was my biggest political rival and he often publically spoke out against me.

    Integrity vs Despair

    It turns out my efforts to change the Iranian regime were not a waste of time. My supporters want me to move back to Iran and become the new supreme leader.

    Thank you everyone who has supported me throughout my wild life. I went from the owner of a gas station to the ruler of a country. Please remember for all the good I have done for charity and not for the decisions I made when my mind began to slip.
    Thank You, Dan Roberts
