Daniel Kawah

What do you do after you realize you have a obligation? The story starts in 2008, when the passionate ex-athlete and Morgan State alum created YEBies as a blog. He built a grassroots following on campus and Baltimore that quickly spread to his hometown of Washington D.C. and the rest of the country. Over the years, Daniel has used YEBies as a platform to carry on the storytelling tradition of West African griots while building stronger communities for future generations. His genuine love for connecting people shines through all his work.

Often considered a “Neo-Renaissance man” by those who know him, Daniel wears his passions, interests and opinions on his sleeves. As the founder and director of YEBies he has been the voice and face since its creation.

Daniel is a seasoned consultant and is currently a marketing and communication director in Kensington, Maryland. He consults and hosts developmental workshops for businesses and organizations under his Connecting Dots Since 84 brand.

The self proclaimed "iPhone Gordon Parks" is an avid user of social media. You can see the world through his eyes on his personal VSCO page or chop it up him 140 characters at a time on Twitter at @DeanDFK.
