Daniel is a multidisciplinary founder with roots in industrial automation, manufacturing, e-commerce, and social impact. He created Mellennialls Holdings to build ventures that blend innovation with long-term community value — from clean skincare and closed-loop recycling systems to digital storytelling platforms and nonprofit initiatives.
Daniel’s background includes hands-on work in solar manufacturing and production-line automation, including experience at Silfab Solar. There, he supported the installation, commissioning, decommissioning, troubleshooting, and maintenance of complex manufacturing equipment, much of it sourced from international vendors. As one of only a small number of technicians fluent in Mandarin Chinese, he frequently served as a technical bridge between equipment suppliers, engineering teams, and plant operations — contributing to operator training, technician onboarding, quality support, and production reliability across multiple systems.
That experience shaped Daniel’s systems-first approach to building companies: an emphasis on operational resilience, clear communication, and designing organizations that don’t depend on a few overextended individuals to function.
Beyond manufacturing, Daniel is a former mentor and leader in adoptee advocacy, where he supported transracially adopted youth through outreach and education. He studied international business and Mandarin Chinese at Western Washington University, bringing a global lens and cross-cultural awareness to every project he leads.
From Soopura’s gentle soaps — inspired by his fragrance-sensitive wife — to EcoLoop’s closed-loop recycling concepts, Daniel leads with hands-on experience, creative vision, and a guiding belief:
Business should serve people, not just profit.
