Danielle grew up in Wisconsin, where she received an undergraduate degree from the University of Wisconsin – Madison. She promptly moved to Colorado, where she earned a Master’s degree in Business Administration with a focus on social impact from Colorado University. The first song on her commuting playlist will always be “85” by Andy Grammar, who shares her love of accumulating experiences, rather than materials. In 2020, she took the opportunity to live in Singapore, where her appreciation of clean, efficient transportation originated. Danielle was less than thrilled to return to single driver commuting after experiencing the beauty of Singapore through the huge window of a double decker bus, taking the train across the City-State to see concerts, and riding the gondola to reach restaurants and hiking trails. Danielle and her husband live in Arvada and have two dogs. Her favorite mode of traveling is taking the commuter rail from Olde Town Arvada to Union Station because it saves her the headache and expense of parking in downtown Denver.
