Hey, I'm Daniel

I founded Greatweek.com after trying to raise funds for a clean energy project I was in volved in a few years back. In that process, I spent months discussing with banks and lenders, noticing each process is different and extremely time consuming.

I had experience from payments and lending products, and figured decided to dedicate my life to making our industry way better in terms of finance support.

In my free time, I spend as much time as possible with my 4 amazing kids and lovely wife. Plus I enjoy a healthy lifestyle and you'll find me climbing a rock or on a paddle-board.

I wish our business world would move quicker to support clean energy ventures. It’s essential that we accelerate development in this area, as we owe it to future generations to ensure we limit CO2 emissions and improve waste management.
