Daniel was born in Georgia and has lived most of his life there, but his work in production and general wanderlust has taken him far from home. Some impactful trips for him have included Iceland, Mexico, and Italy. His curious nature for both new places and ideas causes him to spend most of my time outside of work reading, writing, watching all the films, playing board games, and living in the gym.
Daniel’s journey in production started when he was camera operating live sporting events and news and found Full Lock Media through his college internship program - interning for a semester before being brought on board full time in 2015. Daniel is an excellent addition to any team as an experienced editor and shooter, has worked on many projects in coordination and has spent his recent years serving as a locations coordinator on multimillion dollar films and tv shows.
