When not at the piano or in front of his students, Daniel enjoys exploring the outdoors with wife Sam, and is always content to be on a tennis court or buried in a thick book. Daniel’s piano teachers and mentors have included Andrew Le, David Keep, Clara Christian, and Dwayne Huff, and he is thankful to all of his mentors, teachers, and professors that helped him become the musician he is today and encouraged him to never stop learning.
