Learn graphic design and branding from an industry expert in New York City.

I’ve had the privilege of knowing Daniel for decades, both personally and professionally. We’ve worked together in many capacities—hiring each other for projects, collaborating on creative work, and spending six years together at his design studio, where I served as Creative Director.

Daniel is a true design expert with a deep knowledge of graphic design, branding, book and magazine design, packaging, and even paper-crafted toys and gifts. His experience spans industries like CPG, beauty, fashion, luxury goods, retail, and publishing, giving him a unique and well-rounded perspective.

As a teacher, Daniel is incredibly patient and insightful. He has a remarkable ability to pinpoint where students get stuck and guide them toward solutions without simply giving them the answers. His understanding of design fundamentals—typography, layout, historical references, and practical application—is solid and extensive.

Beyond his expertise, Daniel is an inventor, a published author, and an entrepreneur at heart. He has received patents for his designs, co-created published books, and continuously seeks out new creative opportunities. His inventive mind and passion for design make him an outstanding mentor for any aspiring designer.

If you’re looking for a thoughtful, experienced, and inspiring teacher to help you navigate the world of design, Daniel is the perfect choice. Highly recommended!
