### About the Speaker
Daniel Savion Gupta is an entrepreneur and humanitarian whose journey blends business innovation with global impact. Born in Chicago and raised in Bloomington, Indiana, Daniel grew up surrounded by resilience and philosophy — his mother, Leah Savion, is a professor of Cognitive Science and daughter of Holocaust survivors, while his father, Anil Gupta, rose from humble beginnings in Delhi to become a globally recognized philosopher.
As the founder of the Elysian Art Collection, Daniel spent 17 years traveling the world curating undiscovered artistic talent and building what has since evolved into a brand representing exclusive artists worldwide. His passion for art as a force for good led him to establish the International Art Project (IAP), a nonprofit organization that transforms donated artwork into real-world impact — from clean water systems and schools to libraries and medical aid across the globe.
Beyond his creative ventures, Daniel built one of the largest custom hauler truck companies in the United States, Premium & Exotic Wholesale, and has since expanded into a diverse real estate portfolio spanning more than 115 properties, industrial parks, and large-scale developments. To date, he has led more than 25 major humanitarian projects worldwide, including clean water initiatives serving over 15,000 people and the donation of over 700 artworks to hospitals, universities, and nonprofits.
Through his work, Daniel continues to bridge the worlds of art, business, and philanthropy — proving that creativity and compassion can move beyond the canvas to change lives.

Axen Club 954 (Goal setting/Accountability/Mini Mastermind Group)
The Infinity Hub, 1351 S Dixie Hwy E., STE 8E, Pompano Beach, FL 33060, Pompano Beach, FL, US# AXEN Club: A Monthly Accountability & Mastermind Community Changing Lives in Broward County
Success doesn’t happen in isolation—it takes community, accountability, and consistent action. That’s exactly what AXEN Club, a free bi-weekly goal-setting and accountability group co-hosted by Enid Casablanca of RAW Made and Evan Snow of Choose954, provides to ambitious individuals looking to level up in their personal and professional lives.
## How AXEN Club Came to Broward County
AXEN Club originally started in Miami, founded by Ivan “Dynamo” DeJesus, as a way to bring people together to set clear, actionable goals while holding each other accountable to follow through. The club’s unique format—a mix of mastermind-style discussions, goal tracking, and peer support—quickly gained traction, empowering members to take their careers, businesses, and personal aspirations to new heights.
Evan Snow, always on the lookout for ways to build community and provide value, discovered AXEN Club through an article in The New Tropic titled “How AXEN Club Could Turn You Into a Millionaire by 35.” Intrigued by the structure and impact of the club, he reached out to Dynamo, who was gracious and eager to help bring AXEN Club to Broward County.
With Dynamo’s guidance and the shared vision of Evan Snow and Enid Nolasco, AXEN Club found a new home in Broward County, providing a space for creatives, entrepreneurs, and motivated individuals to hold themselves accountable to their biggest dreams.
## 100s of Lives Changed: The AXEN Club Success Stories
Since launching in Broward, AXEN Club has transformed the lives of 100s of participants, providing the structure and support that so many need to break through barriers and achieve their goals. Whether it's securing a new job, launching a business, completing a passion project, or simply developing better habits, the stories of success are endless.
Here are just a few of the wins that have emerged from AXEN Club:- A talented brand designer received support to pursue her dream of starting a true storytelling event series called RAW Storytelling, empowering her to start her own branding agency and improve her life + community for the better while making life long friends.
- A local entrepreneur found the courage and support to quit their day job and launch a full-time creative business, now thriving in the 954.
- A first-time author used the accountability structure to complete and self-publish their book, something they had been putting off for years.
- Artists and makers have used AXEN Club as a launchpad to establish consistent creative routines, leading to increased sales and exhibition opportunities.
- Professionals and freelancers have landed new clients, improved time management, and built better work-life balance strategies by implementing the actionable steps discussed in each session.
- Countless AXENites have accomplished dozens of soul-filling goals like feeding the unhoused, buying their dream car, moving to a new country, and even finding a spouse!
The beauty of AXEN Club is that it’s not just about setting goals—it’s about following through with the support of a community that genuinely wants to see each other succeed.
## What to Expect at an AXEN Club Session
Each session follows a simple yet highly effective structure:
- SMART Goal Setting: Members share what they are working toward, whether it’s professional, creative, financial, or personal. One of the core principles we help members with is setting SMART Goals—Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound. By ensuring that goals follow this framework, members leave each session with a clear roadmap for success and a plan to take action before the next meeting.
- Accountability Check-In: Attendees reflect on their progress from the previous session—what worked, what didn’t, and how to pivot.
- Mastermind & Peer Support: The group collaborates on challenges, offering insights, resources, and motivation to keep moving forward.
- Action Commitments: Everyone leaves with clear next steps, ensuring they stay on track before the next session.
AXEN Club isn’t just another networking event—it’s a structured space for real, tangible growth that has helped hundreds of individuals take meaningful steps toward their aspirations.
## Beyond the Meetings: The Power of Community
In addition to the monthly meetings, AXEN Club members often connect outside of sessions, attending local cultural events like Art Walks, CreativeZen talks, and various community gatherings that further enrich the experience. This community-driven approach helps members stay inspired, engaged, and deeply connected to like-minded individuals.
