Danielle’s passion for dance was first discovered at the age of eight when she saw Cats on Broadway, a magical moment shared with her Grandma and Mom. Mesmerized by the dancing in the “Jellicle Ball,” she knew instantly that she had found her calling. This unforgettable experience set her on a lifelong journey, dedicating herself to training in dance, music, and acting throughout her academic years, fueling her artistic expression ever since. Danielle began her dance training at Eglevsky Ballet and attended Long Island High School for the Arts where she found her passion to study musical theater. 

Danielle received her Bachelor's Degree from Goucher College in Dance and Vocal Performance and a Master’s Degree from Adelphi University concentrating in Theater Education. She also received her NYS Certifications in Theater and Dance subject areas.

She professionally trained at Steps On Broadway, Broadway Dance Center, The Ailey School, The Acting Studio, Eglevsky Ballet, NYSSSA, and Broadway Artist Alliance. She is a member of The Actors Equity Association and has performed at The John W Engeman Theater, The Ogunquit Playhouse, Town Hall in NYC, Don’t Tell Mama, The Symphony Space, Lincoln Center, Carnegie Hall, The Tilles Center and more.

As a choreographer, Danielle has choreographed for many Long Island theater companies, high schools, and competition dance teams. She also specializes in choreographing pre-screen and dance reel choreography for dancers of all levels.
