Daniel was born and raised in sunny San Diego, California, before moving to San Francisco, where he studied French and linguistics at San Francisco State University while beginning his passion for optics at a sunglasses retail store. Daniel is now happy to be even further north and in an even wetter climate with 5 years of optical experience. When he’s not at work or learning about eyes, glasses, or languages, he loves to hike outside in the gorge or along the coast with his dog, Milou, or nap with his boyfriend and cat, Simba.
