Daniel D. Lee comes from a diverse background having been raised by his immigrant Korean parents, and he has found himself living in opposite ends of the American sociological spectrum in his youth; moving from Illinois, to Hawaii, to Philadelphia all before the age of 13. He has also spent time living in Asia during his teen years where he discovered his talent as an entertainer, starting out on the stage as a break dancer. He soon moved up to choreographing for his Hip hop dance group dubbed H2O and eventually found himself rapping in the Seoul underground where he honed his skills as a performer. Eventually he faced a difficult decision to continue on as an entertainer, or put his calling on hold as he pursued a formal education to invest in himself. He decided to forgo acting to get a business education at Georgia Tech.

Now Daniel is able to draw upon his rich life experiences in order to craft a wide range of realistic characters on screen and on the stage. Daniel continues to have a passion for learning and can be found pursuing a Juris doctorate in Law and tutoring children when he is not producing or working on set.
