What Others Are Saying
“In 20 years as a PM for a ton of projects and companies, I've never worked with an Art Director of her caliber. She's not only easy to work with but also FUN to work with. She has the human integrity to care about her team and puts a ton of effort into making "work" as an enjoyable and innovative as it is about getting things done with the highest-standard of quality -- and she definitely expects high quality work. As a leader, she's a resource, vocal about nonsense, and has great ideas, but she also tempers those things with a realistic understanding of the bigger picture and the progression (and time) solutions can take to implement. When the time calls for it, she's willing to jump in, face the craziness head-on, and do the work and long hours herself - instead of always pushing the work into a Designer. Simply put, she's a major factor in the success of C&B, and I would enthusiastically endorse her if she ever decided to switch gears or need a reference.”

“I worked in partnership with Danielle for several years while at Wilson Sporting Goods. She's extremely collaborative as well as a genuine, hard-worker. Danielle excels at being able to see point-of-views from all angles in effort to work toward the most successful outcome of every project she participates in. Her exceptional organizational skills allow her to recall many historical project details with ease and provide additional support to the project management team when needed. Danielle's determination to expand her design capabilities and knowledge base is one of the most impressive things about her and is certainly a testament to her dedication to her craft. If she doesn't know the answer to something, she will find it for you. Her tenacious, welcoming demeanor make her a pleasure to work with and would welcome the opportunity to work with her again.”

“Danielle is a curious creative and wants to find the creative solution for the task at hand. She is always the first to say "This is a solvable problem." In any stressful situation, Danielle is the one who keeps a cool head, an open mind, and leads the team in a pointed direction. I feel I have learned so much from her as a creative, as an organized individual, and as a person. She has always been an advocate for her team, an over achiever in wanting to learn new technologies in the design field, and she's very approachable. She's a real treat to have lead a team! I attribute a lot of my success at Wilson Sports to her. Her words of encouragement and trust in my ability has gotten me where I am today and it inspires me to pass it on to the next person. Anyone who works for her, or has her on their team is very lucky. 10/10 would recommend.”

“Danielle was a great colleague in the Wilson Creative Group for almost 8 years. She started with us as a Graphics Designer and soon become an Art Director in a few years. Her growth in design and as a leader of her team as very impressive. She accomplished this with a tremendous passion and dedication for doing good work and always pushing for excellent design and fight through adversity. This passion mixed with a crazy detail to attention and always being buttoned-up with her levels of organization made her a great part of our team, which will continue to make her successful in any role she takes on.”
