Daniel is a well-versed, patient yet extremely passionate C-leader for early to mid-stage companies. He's not a typical CTO/CIO in the sense that his experienced Operations and Sales background gives him rounded perspective on guiding a companies technical vision. He's customer and revenue first, yet has a long view on the technical decisions needed in cadence with. He's diligent in his leadership and decision making from architecture through to UX, and I've firsthand witnessed his "tech" pass the pressure tests of massive scale, as well as succesful M&A due diligence; two important phases of every company's growth. Dan is a good partner both internally and externally, and an asset to any team.
