Danielle has lived in Seattle for over a decade, and has made First Hill her home since around 2010. Born and raised in Detroit, Michigan, she graduated from the University of Michigan with a BA in Psychology and eventually made her way west via a 7 year stopover in New York City. From a very young age Danielle has had a profound interest in social work endeavors and social justice issues. She’s worked as a paralegal both in New York and Seattle, but often fills her free time with nonprofit work geared toward helping others in her community. Her work in law centers around the medical field, where she works with a team providing representation to physicians, hospitals, academic medical centers, and other entities around the Pacific Northwest. Danielle is excited to be involved with FHIA to both strengthen her connections in the neighborhood and to learn more about how she can help support First Hill in continuing to cultivate a thriving and enjoyable community.
