About

I’m Danielle, a student living on Oʻahu who enjoys balancing academics with an adventurous personal life. I love diving, sewing, reading, and hiking—activities that keep me connected to nature and creativity. I’m fortunate to be supported by my husband, two children, and two dogs. I strive to live by the values of leadership, service, and character, and I bring passion and commitment to everything I do.

Goals and interests

Career goal

Upon graduation with my Master of Education in Mental Health Counseling, I plan to pursue licensure as a Mental Health Counselor. My goal is to work in settings that support military members, veterans, justice-involved individuals, and underserved populations. I aim to provide trauma-informed, culturally responsive counseling services that promote healing, resilience, and successful reintegration into the community. Ultimately, I want to be a trusted advocate and source of support for those navigating complex mental health and life challenges.
