Before coming to LAist, Dañiel was an on-demand podcast intern at Marketplace for the programs The Uncertain Hour and This is Uncomfortable, which took overwhelmingly large or very personal financial issues and boiled them down to short but fascinating 30-minute episodes. Previously, Dañiel worked in live radio as a reporter and Talk and News Director for 88.1 FM KZSC, the radio station at the University of California, Santa Cruz.
Dañiel is a graduate of the University of California, Santa Cruz with a Bachelor’s in the History of Africa and the Americas! Dañiel enjoys reading fiction and nonfiction during their free time, a favorite of both genres being endlessly scrolling through Twitter feeds!
