Daniel founded Valor Lift Elevators, LLC to address the lack of fairness and quality in elevator services that many customers experience. He wanted to offer something new—Something Distinct. Something Better. Something Valor.
For Daniel, valor signifies acting with integrity when no one is watching, being transparent and honest, and consistently going above and beyond to serve others. Guided by this principle, he took a leap of faith to establish Valor Lift Elevators, LLC and bring honor and service back to the elevator industry.
