Danny started his career as an engineer and found himself migrating closer to customers as he bridged business and technology roles. As part of the founding team of local Denver startup Levels Beyond, Danny worked directly with the early adopter customers to understand the market and identify underserved problems. Post Series A, Danny moved into the CTO role and established the product team while leading the technical organization from 5 to 80+ employees. He was responsible for the partner strategy driving integration with Adobe, Amazon, and Verizon. He authored a patent for educational technology and successfully led a technology acquisition by Comcast. Danny orchestrated the migration on both technology and business fronts from on-premise enterprise licensing to cloud-based SAAS/PAAS powering Amazon Studios, Red Bull Media, and Disney.

Danny loves the growth stages of startups and is able to juggle the necessary product and operations responsibilities to keep an organization running lean as it establishes product/market fit. Danny has achieved success growing startups through strategic partnerships and is bringing that approach to ZolTrain.
