"Daniel has a solid understanding of the nuances of the various scopes of carbon neutrality and capably supports the metrics and data analysis required to keep Google carbon neutral. It has been a pleasure to work with him."
-Kate Brandt, Google's Lead for Sustainability
"Daniel’s influence pushed for the development of the Social Impact & Responsibility concentration at Wharton - not surprising considering that the first things you notice about Daniel are his enthusiasm and his intent to do good. He’s not content just to help the lives of those in his own home, or even in his own neighborhood. He and I share this penchant for roaming the world finding the most impactful ways to serve. Daniel breathes impact, day in and day out."
-Davis Smith, Founder Cotopaxi, Baby.com.br, IRC Loan Committee & UN Foundation Global Entrepreneurs Council
"I first saw Daniel speak at the Social Good Summit and was inspired by how completely he captivated the audience (the same audience also hearing speeches by V.P. Joe Biden and Secretary John Kerry). As he got off the stage, there was a rush of people who formed a line, wanting to understand more about what Google does in the social good space.
I’ve done public relations work around cause and social good for years (representing the United Nations Foundation, The Climate Group, Bloomberg Philanthropies, UN Women and others). I’ve seen passion and creative potential, and Daniel has both. As I’ve continued to run into him, I’ve become all the more impressed by his draw and how effectively he’s been able to articulate Google’s social good story.
We also attended the United Nations Foundation’s global bureau partnership dinner at 30 Rock in New York. At that dinner, we were joined by an assortment of leading communicators in the cause space, top global media organizations, as well as a collection of nonprofits/ cause related organizations and cause entrepreneurs, and Daniel again was in demand.
Daniel has a knack for building relationships, including among influencers - this was very clear at the Social Innovation Summit. I am confident we all will witness the good that will continue to come from his mind for making things happen and his enormous enthusiasm for making the world a better place."
-Ravi Sunnak, EVP, Porter Novelli
"Here's the thing about Dan: he's the best. You won't find anybody better.
But let me become specific:
- Daniel is an innovator. He is always thinking outside of the box, but more importantly - on a personal level, he is able to reach out to strangers and help them feel comfortable and believe in themselves. He has a talent for finding the best in people and bringing it out.
- People love him. I've seen him work a room full of a thousand people at conferences and connect in a real way to dozens of people. Other people refer to it as "networking" but if you know Dan like I do you realize it's something altogether different. Dan just loves people and sees them as people of genuine worth.
- Dan's smart enough to know he needs mentors and friends. That's why he has assembled an unofficial "Board of Directors" comprised of a lot of experts in a variety of fields who are happy to call him friend.
- Dan is a jack of all trades - data is no stranger to him, but its his creativity that sets him apart. Perhaps the best example of his combined skill in these two areas is in his work compiling the compendium released as "Persuasive Advertising: Evidence-based Principles." Check it out. It's impressive.
- Dan thinks big - his heart is big enough to accept and love all people, and he seldom seems to have an idea that he hasn't already considered for scalability.
If Daniel were a company I'd buy stock. You can look, but you won't find anybody better."
-Russell Hancock, President & Chief Executive Officer, Joint Venture Silicon Valley
