Passion. Experience. Integrity.


Welcome & Greetings!

I’m Daniel, a #web & #tech enthusiast focused on #digitaltransformation, #technology, and #resilience leveraging my experience to help shape responsible organizations and safer communities.

PASSION.

CREATOR

[ Digital // WEB ] ALCHIMIST

As a digital alchemist I seek to combine the best of #technology, #humans and nature to transform and manifest digital elements and ideas into purposeful solutions, products, or experiences.

EXPERIENCE.

PROTECTOR

[ CYBER ] SECURITY CONSULTANT

I provide guidance, develop strategies, and assist in the implementation of online and offline security measures to improve the security of individuals, organizations & communities.

INTEGRITY.

TEACHER

[ MARTIAL ARTS / RESILIENCE] COACH

I pass on the spirit and the heritage of #martialarts in a lineage of #peacefulwarrriors to inspire people to believe in themselves and become the best version of themselves.

BACKGROUND:

My #tech journey began as a kid with #Atari, #Sega, and #Nintendo Consoles and got more serious in the late ’80s as a #Commodore Coach & Open-Source Contributor, sparking a lasting passion for projects with a purpose and collaborative problem-solving. In the 2000s, I led a startup bridging ICT & web innovations, humbled by the opportunity to explore emerging #web technologies. Since 2010, I mainly consult and manage [digital] transformation projects, aiming to empower through technology.

Resilience (and my passion for #martialarts / 詠春) has been my guiding light and constant throughout, helping me navigate challenges and embrace continuous change.

Let’s connect and explore new possibilities together! Grateful for any collaboration or learning opportunities.
