About
Danielle never learned how to pick one passion. From a young age she showed proclivities towards music, theater, and architecture. Growing up in Seattle, WA provided opportunities to explore highly influential architectural works, walk the same paths as famous musicians, and fostered a deep reverence for nature.
After moving sight unseen to Minneapolis for college, and later studying abroad in Copenhagen, Danielle developed a love for travel and new experiences, and a resiliency to fear and awkwardness.
While at the University of Minnesota, Danielle worked in the theater department’s scene shop as a staff carpenter, helping to build sets for productions at both UMN and Penumbra Theater. Outside of the university, Danielle has designed for Uncharted Theatre Company and OPENSTAGE in Minneapolis.
Graduation brought a degree in Architecture and Theater Tech, and summa cum laude honors with the completion of their thesis on Environmental Scenic Design. A combination of relentless searching and luck brought Danielle to the Bay Area for a job in Theater Planning & Consulting, combining her architectural and theatrical knowledge.
Whenever Danielle is not at work, she can be seen performing with Secret Improv Society in San Francisco, writing songs and poetry, attending bluegrass jams, making vocal arrangements, walking the hills, puzzling, and going down research rabbit holes.
