The first time someone asked Danielle what she wanted to be when she grew up, she answered without hesitation, "a lawyer." (It might be that her mother brainwashed her - though her mother claims the Fifth in that regard.) Her focus was to be able to help people in need by being knowledgeable about people's rights. When, ultimately, she got her Juris Doctor degree, Danielle decided to specialize in the field of personal injury because it allows her to help people who've been injured to begin to reclaim their lives and their future. In addition to personal injury, Danielle also practices appellate law. Danielle is married and is the mother of two boys. She leads an active lifestyle and enjoys tennis and traveling.
