J. Damany Daniel

J. Damany Daniel (the J is silent) blends Brooklyn swagger with the warmth of your best (and most sarcastic) friend. As “The Event Nerd,” he leads a multi-award winning event agency known for crafting unforgettable, tech-driven experiences worldwide. As a lover of stories and their power to transform, he uses innovation to create events that connect and captivate, and is as passionate about arts and culture as he is about the experiences they enhance.

A dynamic presenter and dance floor aficionado, Damany loves great food, good music, and lively conversations. He co-hosts the Casually Creative podcast, champions culture in Dallas as the Arts and Culture Commissioner for Dallas, District 6, is the Vice Chairman of the Dallas International Film Festival, and is a trustee of the Deep Ellum Foundation.

He is the father to two creative geniuses in the making- Ezekiel and Isaac, and the husband to a baddie- Heather.

He loves his life.
