Hello there!

My name is Daniel Baker. I graduated from the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign with a Bachelor’s degree in Journalism. After working at an NPR member station back in Urbana, I pivoted into Marketing and worked at CMMS Data Group as a content creator. 

Now, I am using my marketing skills to create data-driven content for Youtube channels, rock bands, and other small business owners. My goal is to help my diverse clientele market their products and services with a creative and socially conscious edge. 

Please make yourself at home! And, if you are in need of a burgeoning freelancer, don’t hesitate to reach out! I would love to hear about your project! Just let me know what your goals are so we can come up with a game plan and a quote tailored to your needs.
