Currently, he is the Regional Director for The Church of the Nazarene, Africa. Beyond the church, Dany has worked for the International Organization for Migration, working towards a more humane and orderly migration of people. His passion in ministry is to see communities transformed by Christlike disciples who will bring peace, healing and restoration in every community and nation of Africa through the values of authenticity, presence, relevance, and interdependence.
