About Daniel

I started my production company in 2006 and have spent 8 years since then developing a few pilots and my American pilot got picked up by a director in 2014 and we are working now for a late July 2015 shoot, I do have a UK and Australian pilot on plan but these have not had interest from a director.
I also distribute a POP duo from Boston, MA in the UK and planning to cut their demo CD here and bring them as much success as they achieved in the USA.

Unique traits: I have Asperger's Syndrome, I have 5 years professional cheerleading experience and planning to go to Worlds next year, I want to be everywhere in media and hope to build an empire soon.
