Danny here, nice to e-meet?
Nope. Not a lover of e-meeting, much more of a face attached to body meeter! I enjoy the company of others. I am motivated by the teams I work with and love motivating them when leading a brand, a marketing arm, or a film set.
Originally from Israel and based in NYC since 2017, I wake up every morning excited about the daily adventures and challenges, and I possess endless energy to confront and (sometimes) enjoy them.
I've been stranded in deserts and creeks, had dinners with cultural icons, encountered shoot-outs, managed companies, toured off-broadway, and slept hungry in mud. I have many stories to tell. Be my audience for this short scroll.
