“Outside of work, I spend a lot of time traveling, hiking, camping, playing cards and games, and skiing,” Danielle says. “I am very close with my extended family and friends, who I organize trips and outings with. I’m a strong advocate for more accessibility features in life and virtually, better education and services on mental health, drawing attention to disparities in women’s health, and reducing my own carbon footprint.”
