Daniel Oginsky, President and Co-Founder

With his wife and co-founder Anna, Daniel built Heartmonic from a vision to a portfolio of businesses operating at four properties in Brighton and Leland, Michigan.  Through this platform, Heartmonic hosts residents and members in dedicated office, shared co-work, and co-warehouse space; provides meeting and event space; offers programs for personal and professional development;  represents artists and offers fine art to patrons; and hosts guests for vacation stays at a luxury home in Northern Michigan.

Daniel served as a senior executive for 15 years with a Michigan company, initially as its General Counsel for 10 years and later leading business development efforts, external affairs, human resources, and strategic planning.  During this time, Daniel helped lead the company from operating in Southeast Michigan under private equity ownership, through an IPO and listing on the NYSE, to operating in seven states.  Previous to his corporate experience, Daniel was an attorney in private practice specializing in energy law at firms in Washington, D.C. and Lansing, Michigan.

Daniel loves working with people to build meaningful things.  He grew up in Flint, Michigan, where he worked in his father’s garage and developed a passion for cars and restoration projects.  He is an artist and most recently infused his love of history, restoration, and art into building new homes for Brighton Light House and All Heart Garage in Brighton, Michigan.  He and Anna graduated from Michigan State University, have 3 kids, and live in Brighton.
