Danielle serves as the Resource Development Manager for United Way California Capital Region. She has the chance to bring businesses, community leaders, educators, government, and nonprofits together to work on breaking down barriers to education as a method of reducing poverty.

Danielle joined Metro EDGE in late 2018 and immediately gravitated to the Emerge Summit because of the energy it brings to Sacramento and its impact on YPs. Danielle believes the Emerge Summit is a fantastic opportunity to learn from leading professionals on how to make your vision or dream into a reality. It’s also a chance to push yourself out of your comfort zone to experience personal and professional growth. For Danielle, Sacramento is home. She loves that it is a small city where the community and people are first. This vibrant city is full of passion, drive, and helping hands.
