The son of a Holocaust survivor, Daniel has spent his life building bridges - first by promoting economic cooperation in the Middle East, then by building the OneVoice Movement, the largest grassroots movement of Israelis and Palestinians working toward peaceful coexistence.
Daniel launched the iconic KIND brand from his basement in 2004 and grew it into a multibillion-dollar brand known for health transparency and purpose-driven business.
Today, through Camino Partners, Daniel backs enduring businesses focused on enhancing consumers’ lives. With Builders, he helps citizens move beyond “us vs. them” mindsets to find common ground and build on it together. A political independent, he brings a values-driven lens to everything from entrepreneurship to civic life.
A New York Times bestselling author and now full-time Shark on Shark Tank, Daniel’s work has been recognized with honors including The King Center’s Beloved Community Award, the Ellis Island Medal of Honor, and the Muhammad Ali Humanitarian Award. President Obama named him a Presidential Ambassador for Global Entrepreneurship.
Born in Mexico, Daniel came to the U.S. at 16, and earned a BA from Trinity and a JD from Stanford. He enjoys spending time with his wife and four children, and loves practicing magic.
