About the Founder

Gregory Daniel, an accomplished graduate of Alfred State College, began his architecture career at Morris and Brown Architects, a distinguished firm specializing in local casinos in the Las Vegas area, Indian Gaming, and Riverboat casinos. With a strong focus on interior architecture, Gregory has cultivated extensive expertise in 3D rendering.

Throughout his career, Gregory has made significant contributions to the success of several esteemed architecture firms in the Las Vegas valley, including Steelman Partners, JMA Architecture, Wynn Design Development, YWS Architects, and Klai Juba Wald Architects. His proficiency in creating high-end commercial and casino hospitality 3D rendering projects has proved to be a valuable asset, greatly enhancing project outcomes. Utilizing the latest versions of 3D Studio Max with VRay and Adobe Creative Suite, Gregory consistently delivers refined and visually stunning results.

Driven by his passion for 3D visualization and animation, Gregory founded First View Consulting. This venture was established to provide 3D rendering services to smaller architecture firms that lacked the resources for in-house personnel and struggled to keep up with the latest software and hardware advancements. Over time, First View Consulting has evolved into a valuable resource for larger firms during peak demand periods. Gregory’s ability to seamlessly integrate with existing teams has played a pivotal role in ensuring project success and client satisfaction.

In addition to offering 3D rendering services, Gregory also provides IT services and drafting services to multiple firms. When promoted to a CAD manager at Morris and Brown Architects, Greg quickly gained insight into the compatible computer components for Autodesk software. His expertise in IT management and deployment services has enabled smaller firms to establish efficient networks and procure powerful computers within their budget constraints.

Beyond his professional endeavors, Gregory is dedicated to maintaining a balanced lifestyle. He finds enjoyment in participating in outdoor activities such as hiking, mountain biking, skiing, and rafting, which not only rejuvenate him but also inspire his creative work.
