About Daniel J. Lewis

I have a passion for creativity! I've been podcasting since 2007, which is when I launched my clean-comedy podcast. Audacity was my immediate audio-editor of choice, since I'd already used it for video- and audio-production. I also frequently podcast Christian movie reviews with critical thinking. My most recent podcast success is launching a Once Upon a Time podcast.

Other podcasters and small businesses need quality design, which is why I continue to offer professional freelance web, presentation, and podcast cover art design services. Go ahead and ask me to design something for you.

I'm also available for speaking on podcasting, social media, or design; and one-on-one podcast consulting. Contact me and I'll be happy to help you!
