HEYYYY. I’M DANIEL.

I’m a Creative Director, Art based in NYC and SF.

With 14+ years in the advertising industry (II know, wilddd) I’ve done stints at GoodKid, Edelman, TBWA \ Integer Group, Publicis, MRM // McCann, VaynerMedia, & Grey and have been fortunate to work on global and experiential campaigns for brands such as Xfinity, Tazo Tea, Schick Hydro & Xtreme, M&M's, Twix, Garnier, Pantene & Mountain Dew.

I've concepted and touched pretty much everything from experiential & gaming to traditional TV commercials, (so much) digital, social, OOH stunts, and any random ideas I can get a client to do.

I also have a passion for teaching and have been paying it forward to my alma mater,
Miami Ad School: NYC for the past 10 years.

Let’s work together and make things —
