• “Daniel is one of the most talented and effective creatives I've ever had the pleasure of working with.
  
  He has an abundance of taste and empathy, and channels that through very high standards to deliver work that stands out on multiple levels. He's a great team player, demanding excellence of himself first, and then his teammates. More than that, he leads from the front — Daniel was an out-performer when we worked together and it's been a complete joy to watch his career blossom.”

  — Seyi Taylor, Co-founder, Big Cabal Media

  

• “I’ve had the pleasure of working with Daniel for over four years and across three different companies (Zikoko, Konbini and Backdrop).

• “Daniel is truly exceptional, a standout individual that every team should have. I've had the honour of collaborating with Daniel for more than three years, spanning two distinct companies — PiggyVest and Splice. During our time together at PiggyVest, he proved to be an invaluable partner as the Head of Content.
  
  When embarking on the Splice venture, there was no question that I needed Daniel's expertise in shaping our content strategy. Following a single meeting where I shared the vision for Splice, Daniel not only formulated our content strategy but also played a crucial role in hiring our first SEO writer and setting him up for success. Daniel's contributions are nothing short of remarkable.”

  — Layo Ogunbanwo, CEO, Splice

  

• “Throughout our working relationship, which spans 10 years, I have consistently been impressed by the quality of Daniel’s work. His commitment to delivering high-quality content is unparalleled. He has a keen eye for delivering engaging, informative, and well-researched content and projects that truly resonate with the target audience.
  
  In addition to the superb quality of his work, Daniel's speed of execution is commendable. He has consistently displayed a remarkable ability to meet tight deadlines without compromising on depth and accuracy. Regardless of the project's complexity or urgency, Daniel remains composed under pressure and delivers exceptional results within the given timeframe.
  
  Overall, Daniel Orubo is an exceptional professional whose consistent output and commitment to excellence make him an asset.”

  — Odunayo Eweniyi, COO, PiggyVest

  

• "Daniel's storytelling workshop was exactly what I wanted for the company retreat! I admired the work he did for the Piggyvest brand, and he was able to show my team how to do that not for just any company, but for themselves, too. As people in finance, the tendency is to not see themselves as creatives and view it as a skill that would be hard to acquire.
  
  Daniel broke down the major components in an engaging way and allowed the team time to practice what they had learned. He showed how our brains work, and how everything is a story. Plus, he helped us connect with our personal brands in a natural and exciting way. Thanks to Daniel, I’m confident that my team has more creatives and will tell better stories."

  — Nichole Yemnbra, Founder and Managing Director, The Chrysalis Co

  

• “Over the past decade, I’ve followed Daniel’s work from a distance, then closely as a colleague within Zikoko, and later as his client while I led growth at Eden.
  
  Some traits have remained: Daniel has an incredible work ethic and an unparalleled instinct for content that works. I’ll never pass on an opportunity to work with him.”
