Daniel is an art director based in South Wales who graduated with a First in TV and Film Set Design from the University of Glamorgan in 2013. Daniel has a wide range of experience ranging from low budget feature films to high-end TV (HETV) dramas, managing with large and small studio builds to countless locations across the UK. 

Past credits include Lost Boys and Fairies (Duck Soup), Havoc (Netflix) and The Winter King (ITVX). In the future, Daniel is hoping to build on the experience and mentorship from the ScreenSkills Make a Move scheme in 2023 and is excited to start with Leaders of Tomorrow to help work up the career ladder in the art department to becoming supervising art director. 

Leaders of Tomorrow is a three-year inclusion programme for mid-level professionals. Participants are nominated by senior colleagues in high-end TV. Daniels nominator Adam Knopf said: "Daniel has built an incredible list of credits over the years and recently stepped up to art director through the MAM scheme on Lost Boys and Fairies. I felt that Leaders of Tomorrow would provide Daniel with access to mentoring and training in department management, budgeting and technical elements, each supporting his progression towards being one of Wales' future production designers."
