Daniel Fernandes

Daniel Fernandes is a queer Canadian actor, host, writer, director, and producer of Afro-Filipino descent. He was previously a host and digital media producer for TVOKids for over six years. Daniel has also recently produced for YTV's Zone Weekend and Big Fun Movies where he directs, writes, and produces comedic segments. As a writer, Daniel has written on shows on TVO, YTV, BBC, and AppleTV. He was a participant of the BIPOC Commercial Directing and Showrunner's workshops and recently a graduate of the BIPOC Kids TV Writing Bootcamp. He has created two series that he is currently developing with Big Bad Boo and IGP Productions. On top of all of that, Daniel is a drag queen and hopes to use it one day as a vehicle to teach kids the joys of self-love and acceptance. As a queer mixed-race artist, representation and diversity are a top priority for Daniel.
