ABOUT
Daniel was born and raised in Toronto, Canada. Majoring in both economics and philosophy at the University of Toronto, Daniel blended both fields for his debut novel Snide Clyde Died. He wrote and produced the award-winning sci-fi short film Cap and Trade, serving as a proof of concept for future projects. His style is fast-paced, presenting stories with morally gray, rough-around-the-edges characters and dilemmas with no easy answer. His stories aim to grip audiences and keep them on the edge of seat with complex characters and intense, unpredictable plots.
LITERATURE
SNIDE CLYDE DIED
When Clyde learns his best friend Dylan is indebted to their dealer, he works out an agreement to launder money.

SNIDE CLYDE DIED is Fight Club with a lethal injection of millennial dread, with Clyde's world being one where identity is commodified, "network is net worth" and online presence is the only way anyone really matters.
