Danielle was born in Hamilton, Ontario. She found herself in film after her friend brought her to set to be an extra. She found enjoyment in many aspects of film including Stand-in work. After being upgraded on multiple occasions she decided to train for Stunts with her co-coordinator Eric Bryson (prior Chair for the Stunt Committee in Toronto) and while she had no formal acting training, she found a class she holds in the highest regard by acting coach and Gemini winner Jeff Seymour. Danielle had always found the most intimidating factor to acting was line learning, until she enthusiastically embraced the Streamlining technique by Deanne Henry. Her goals in the future include a potential sitcom involving her identical twin.
