Danielle earned her Bachelor's of Science degree with an emphasis on middle grade education and has been teaching since 2006. She has also taught eighth grade mathematics at Lovejoy Middle School, and sixth and seventh grade language arts for Herschel Jones Middle School.

Danielle's motto is 'Be the change you would like to see in the world,' by Ghandi. She says she "thinks about this motto every single day, and the teachers who inspired me to become a believer in myself. I hope to teach students that learning is never-ending, and that the future is in their hands."

Danielle resides in the Vinings/Atlanta area, and claims her pug, Nolan, as her only child. She also enjoys indoor rock climbing, traveling with family and friends, and playing her guitar.
