Danielle joins the Compass to Care team with training and experience in education, marketing, and event planning. Danielle received her Bachelor’s Degree in Communications and her Master’s Degree in Secondary Education– both from the University of Dayton.

After about 8 years teaching English Literature to middle school and high school students in the United States and abroad, Danielle began working for a non-profit in Chicago, gaining experience in fundraising and event planning.

After the birth of her second child, Danielle took some time off to focus on family and determine the next steps of her career, ultimately landing her at Compass to Care in the summer of 2022. What drew Danielle into Compass to Care was its incredible mission.

An educator at heart, Danielle’s priority and passion is supporting children and families in need. It’s a privilege to work with motivational, perseverant, and heroic children and their families, and Danielle is honored to have the job of planning events to help in their fight against cancer.
