Born and raised in Washington, D.C, Pastor Danny accepted Jesus Christ as his savior at the age of 16 while attending St. Stephen Baptist Church located in Temple Hills, MD. He accepted his call to preach and teach the gospel of Jesus Christ under the leadership of Senior Pastor, Bishop Lanier C. Twyman, Sr. He became a licensed minister in 2008 and an ordained elder in 2013. Pastor Danny served in ministry at St. Stephen for 22 years.

Danny has been afforded to share the Gospel on several platforms, both locally and nationally, he is often called on to speak at retreats, camps and conferences. Many of his closest friends and colleagues describe him as “fun, creative, and high-energy.” His creative approach to preaching and teaching allows him to understand and engage with youth on many levels.
