Whether he was speaking to a group of 50 or an arena of over 5500 cheering fans, Danny inspired audiences with his highly engaging and informative message. But above all, he always has the audience laughing and wanting more. He is not a prima donna when it comes to working out event details and truly understands and appreciates the little things that make customers feel great.
