Daniel began ministry at Niagara United Mennonite Church in 2019. He grew up in the Niagara Region, and studied Economics and Business at Brock University before attending seminary at Wycliffe College at the University of Toronto. After school, he served with Mennonite Central Committee in Sarajevo, Bosnia, where he met his wife, Ana. Returning to Canada, they found themselves ministering in a church in the northeast Saskatchewan and not long after, parenting.

Daniel is passionate about the Bible and the larger biblical narratives and also enjoys being outdoors: walking, hiking, reading and the standard – coffee sipping.
