The Craftsman’s Path
Tradie
Meet Daniel Hernandez
From crafting mathematical theories in Venezuela to mastering the art of carpentry in Australia, Daniel has found his passion in creating new life into old treasures.
Daniel’s Adventure
Back in Venezuela, Daniel balanced carpentry work with earning a mathematics degree, even authoring a number of textbooks. Facing the country's economic challenges, he left in search of new opportunities and found inspiration in Australia’s thriving construction industry. Returning to carpentry, he earned top accreditations and became a site supervisor, fully embracing Aussie work culture. Today, Daniel and his wife are renovating their home, with a passion in transforming old treasures, equipped with the tools from Rhino-Rack to make it all a little easier.
"In Venezuela, carpentry is not a career that will be financially successful. So coming from that cultural background, you have to go to uni and enroll in math. I finished my Bachelor's degree in mathematics while I was doing gigs on site on the tools."
“Part of our migration plan coming to Australia was to pursue my Bachelor's degree in math. I had a conversation with a colleague of mine and I asked her, what will be the person that will make the most money? And then she pointed out this bloke wearing high-vis.”
“When I got my car I started topping it with all the accessories and the rack, so I was able to put my tools on the tray and on top of the roof. I love the car and I love what I can do with it.”
