A North Bay native who now calls San Francisco home, Daniel attended San Diego State University and is an active member of several organizations, including The Olympic Club, the San Francisco Association of Realtors, the SF Multifamily Marketing Group, and the San Francisco Apartment Association.

In his free time, Daniel enjoys staying active, spending time with family, cheering on the Giants, 49ers, and Warriors, and sailing his boat, Tonka, with his wife and their dog, Rio.
