After several years of working as a decorative artist, Danielle has recently returned to work in the environmental field. She is currently the Walter Fellow/Community Outreach Coordinator at the Yellowstone Office of National Parks Conservation Association where she focuses on engaging gateway community leaders in park protection.

Though she is new to the complex land and wildlife conservation issues of the west, Danielle is not a stranger to the environmental arena. She spent 2 years with the Presidio Trust in San Francisco as the Sustainability Program Coordinator, focusing on waste reduction and resource conservation in the park.

After a semester with the School For Field Studies in Baja, California, Danielle received a bachelor's degree in Environmental Studies from Oberlin College.

Danielle lives in Bozeman, Montana, where she spends her free time backpacking, skiing, two-stepping, cooking, and gardening. She spends as much time with family and friends as she can!

As a trustee of the Arthur M. Blank Family Foundation, she has a particular interest in green buildings, parks, and healthy communities.
