Daniel Iosif Prelipcian was born in Romania. He started on his travels when he was eighteen. He went to Hungary, Germany and lived in Spain. Then, he moved to the United States where he is currently living. Daniel earned a BA at John Jay College in International Criminal Justice. While in the Unites States, Daniel took a course at the University of Shanghai, China. In 2013, he volunteered for a project in Honduras, Choluteca. While traveling and studying abroad, Daniel observed poverty, injustice and human rights violations. Daniel's dream is to transform poor communities into sustainable communities and restore justice to people who cannot speak for themselves. To understand the root of poverty and political conflicts, he enrolled in a graduate program at the School of International and Public Affairs at Columbia University. Daniel believes that these skills are essential for him to be able to help poor communities. After his fellowship, Daniel wrote: "I do not want to be just another person among more than seven billion people on this planet. But, I want to make a difference in the lives of those who are poor, and those who are rich, the educated and the uneducated, the orphans and the widows, those who are afflicted, and those who are at the periphery waiting for somebody to reach them."
