About Me
Christian Daniel
I'm Christian Daniel, a web designer and video editor based in Queens, NY. With over 20 years of experience, I've helped hospitality brands, small businesses, and creative entrepreneurs build their digital presence.
I started video editing in high school and picked up web design in college at Hunter. What began as a passion project evolved into an award-winning studio that's worked with names like The Plaza Hotel, Park Hyatt Chicago, and National Geographic.
I turn ideas into
digital experiences
My approach is simple: no fluff, just quality work that actually converts. Every project gets my full attention because I believe in doing things right the first time.
