Daniel Bryant is an Art Teacher with the Dorchester County School District 2 at Oakbrook Elementary School. Bryant was born and raised in Summerville, South Carolina, graduating from Stratford Highschool and going on to receive his undergraduate degree in Youth Ministry from Charleston Southern University where he also minored in Art. He later attended College of Charleston majoring in Studio Art, where he received Departmental Honors in recognition of his distinguished performance in the field.

Creating a copious array of art animation projects in his spare time, Bryant came up with the idea of the mini series, “The Boys of Valor”, as well as “Karate Dawgs” that dealt with children’s self esteem.

Bryant’s love for children is also evident in his after school mentoring program where he sacrifices his personal time after work to mentor at risk boys in the areas of science, technology, and sports. He instills in them character and integrity, as well as the value of respecting themselves and others.
