DANIEL

Daniel now had a mission… to create an effective medicated balm that would heal the skin and taste good and that came in a convenient, compact package that could be easily stored in a pocket, purse, or bag. Daniel involved his father, Joel Schlessinger, and his grandfather, Bernie Schlessinger, a PhD in physical chemistry, as mentors. Daniel also began working with a set of chemists in meetings held after school, before track practices or whenever he had free time. The work to create just the right product continued, and Daniel began using his vacations and time off from school to travel to potential manufacturers to make the product.
