Daniel was born in Guayama, Puerto Rico. He has a fraternal twin and a younger sister as well as a step brother. He grew up in Puerto Rico and enjoyed fishing, climbing trees, sneaking up on family and friends and just being mischievous. His family moved to Ohio when he was eleven years old. He eventually acclimated to his new home but has a special place in his heart for tropical islands. Daniel joined the United States Navy in 2005 as a yeoman, which is similar to the administrative and payroll field of the civilian world. He served for 8 years before he was diagnosed with PTSD and subsequently honorably discharged. These days, he is in treatment but also uses writing as a form of self therapy and creative expression.

James Cuzack is a family man and a lawyer. Unlike other lawyers, he has a strict rule-no guilty clients. This rule is put to the test when he meets a strange man who tells him he has been accused of murdering 35 people. Despite the shocking crime, James believes in his innocence and embarks on an investigation into the details of this case and search for the real killer. His journey takes him to conclusions and worlds he never would have imagined existed.
This is the first book I published on October 2013, The year I was retired.
This book is a lullaby that can be read or sung to your little ones. The creation of this book was a family endeavor as I created the lyrics with my daughter when she was three. My wife helped by creating the illustrations and recently she created new and more colorful illustrations for us to rerelease the book.
