Eccentric postal worker Dan Foley is one of 18 players set to compete on CBS's Survivor: Worlds Apart, and he is hoping to use his various work experiences to his advantage in the game.

Dan, 47, is an enthusiastic Survivor super-fan with numerous life experiences, as he describes in the video below. In the upcoming season he will be a member of the blue collar tribe, known as Escameca.

The postal worker says in his CBS bio that he has the "competitive spirit" of Stephenie LaGrossa, the "cunning and scheming gameplay of Survivor: Cagayan winner Tony Vlachos and the "strength, love of family and stunning good looks" of fan favorite Rupert Boneham.

He says that he is hoping to become one of the most "elite" Survivor winners ever, and he will do this through his ability to charm people, adding that he is a "world-class 'schmooze' artist."

His background as a landlord, a technician and an Irishman are what he hopes to take with him to help in the game.

"As a landlord, I am excellent at reading people and controlling some pretty out of control situations. As an Irishman, I have a glorious stubborn streak and I hate to lose. As a technician, I have a very analytical mind so I'll be great at puzzles. I'm also very good with my hands so I'll be a big help around camp. I am the entire package. Also, I am not above taking the rules of fair play in a spirited competition and grinding them to dust beneath my heel."

Survivor: Worlds Apart is set to premiere Wednesday, Feb. 25 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on CBS.
