Leaving New York and landing in La La land with dreams of becoming an actor.

The odd extra job here and there.

Nothing.

Hollywood reared it’s egregious ugly head with toxic-stained eyes.

City of Angels became Town of Demons.

Tinsel Town lost the twinkle in it’s eye. Danny, too.

Danny felt lost and confused and totally at rock bottom.

But, something softly whispered to his soul. A calling. Muse. Something. She kept pulling Danny.

He took endless flights from LA to China, hustling an wining and dinning. The Ritz, Carlton China.

A sliding doors moment. Danny stumbled upon a new technology. The genesis of HEXCLAD.

HEXCLAD are ab-SO-lootely smashin it

  • reinvented cookware and became one of the fastest growing multi 9 figure D2C brands in the world
  • secured Gordon Ramsay as a business partner
  • partnered with Halle Berry, Hailey Bieber, Kendall Jenner

This is true founders story. Ups and downs. Sliding door moments. Grit. Hope. Pain. Truimph.

You’re going to LOVE it.
