A passionate advocate for both the artistry and logistics of music, Danielle’s work spans chamber and orchestral compositions, film scoring, digital production, and event management.
Her musical journey began early, with formal piano studies starting at age six. While she has learned various instruments over the years, the piano remains her primary focus. In 2020, the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic ignited her passion for composition, drawing her into the expressive world of film scores. Influenced by composers like Cody Fry, Justin Hurwitz, Michael Giacchino, and John Williams, her music reflects a deep appreciation for emotion-driven storytelling.
Danielle’s compositions, often inspired by personal and shared human experiences, blend beauty with valor, pulling listeners into immersive soundscapes. Her works have been performed by various University of Florida music students and ensembles, such as the Ocala Symphony Orchestra and the BlackBox Ensemble. No matter the project, she is dedicated to creating enjoyable, passionate experiences for the performers and the audience members.
In addition to composing, Danielle is deeply involved in live music production and event management. She has organized recitals, coordinated guest artist residencies, and managed everything from equipment setup to live recording and audio engineering. Her technical skills and collaborative spirit have led her to work with Latin Grammy-winning artists and contribute as an assistant recording engineer to the platinum-winning project “Oh, Korea!”, which received an AVA Digital Award for Long Form Music Video.
Whether composing, producing, or managing events, Danielle remains dedicated to creating meaningful connections and impactful experiences through music—fostering moments that stay with her collaborators and listeners long after the music ends.
