We had the good fortune of connecting with Danny Alvarez and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Danny, how do you think about risk?
I’ve always believed risk and reward go hand in hand. It runs in my family, and my motto has always been big risk, big reward. Taking risks isn’t about gambling for me. It’s about trusting my vision, putting in the work, and stepping up when others hesitate. Every major step in my life and career has come from taking bold risks, and those moves have always pushed me to grow and succeed.

What should our readers know about your business?
Level Five Drywall is all about reaching the highest level of quality in every project. The name comes from Level 5 drywall finishing, the top standard in the trade and also the highest-level mutants in X-Men, reflecting my mindset. What sets us apart is our attention to detail and dedication.

Any places to eat or things to do that you can share with our readers? If they have a friend visiting town, what are some spots they could take them to?
I’d take my friend to Coronado Beach for some beach vibes, hit tacos El Gordo or even Tijuana for some tacos! Catch a Padres night game in the Gaslamp. Mix in some rooftop drinks with good food,that’s the ultimate San Diego week.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I want to give credit to my parents. My dad taught me the trade and my mom always kept me grounded. I’ve also picked up so much from past employers, foremen, superintendents, and fellow journeymen. Everyone I’ve worked with along the way has helped me level up and get to where I am today.
