Speaker:
Daniel Lewis is the funky-bowtie wearing founder of the modern, award-winning tea company, T By Daniel Inc. His crazy outlook on business and his Willy Wonka inspired retail tactics have garnered him and his company nation-wide recognition and many awards and honours such as 2016 Business Excellence Award and 2017 and Top 40 Under 40 Entrepreneurs. Lewis's success with his retail tea brand has even landed him a new exciting title as one of three Global Entrepreneurship Week Ambassadors for Canada and also paved the way for him to launch MARSketingBoutique Agency. What many don't know about Lewis is the story behind his drive and passion and his desire to spread it to any pair of ears that will listen. After being a victim of a nearly fatal stabbing, (where Lewis was stabbed four times), he decided to make the best of his second shot at life, by turning a bitter situation into an opportunity to help impact and inspire the lives of others in a special way, using a tea business as the means to do it. By facing life and all its ups and downs head-on, with a smile on his face, Lewis challenges, youth, business owners, professionals and just about anyone who will listen, to appreciate the NOW, Master the Miniature and Make Crazy Look Normal! Lewis is a regular presenter for youth conferences and events. He always leaves a positive impact for young people with core messaging of resilience, strength, courage, and self-leadership to inspire youth to make good decisions and grow into productive, active and valued members of the community.
