The Go family is based in Quezon City, Philippines,[3] and runs a processed and preserved food manufacturing business specializing in Chinese delicacies – started by his grandfather in the 1940s and still popular today among the Chinese community.[1]
His family's Chinese food business manufactures the famous Fat & Thin champoy candy, which had his father's cartoons and caricatures imprinted on the wrapper. And Go spent most of his time watching his father work, eventually acquiring the same love for the art.[4]
As a young boy, Daniel Go showed considerable interest and skill in the visual arts during summer art classes and school competitions when he attended primary school at Grace Christian High School, from 1973 to 1979, and at Jubilee Christian Academy – both in Quezon City – from 1979 to 1984 for his secondary education.[3]

The Christ’s Commission Fellowship Worship and Training Center (known as CCF Center) – completed in 2013 – was Go’s first big project because during that time, Go had not designed anything of this magnitude, and designing and erecting this project took him seven years. The CCF Center is the international headquarters of the non-denominational megachurch called Christ's Commission Fellowship (CCF).
