Welcome.

I am a freelance writer and content creator based in California. I specialize in travel, books, and profiles of interesting people.

My essays, interviews, reviews, and reported pieces have been published in both print and online publications including Lonely Planet, Fodor’s Travel, Wine Enthusiast, SAVEUR, and Roadtrippers Magazine.

As a freelance writer, I thrive on finding new and unique angles and am meticulous about meeting deadlines. And I’ll do (almost) anything for a story– I’ve flown from an aerial swing in Brazil, sampled fried insects in Mexico, and fought my fear of heights as I trudged my way up 300 spiral steps to Sacre Coeur’s dome in Paris. Every challenge sparks my desire to learn more, see more, experience more.

I also enjoy collaborating with clients who need their ideas transformed into words. I have a passion for telling compelling stories and my ideas are limitless. I’ve worked with a variety of individuals and companies who are seeking someone who is passionate about their craft. If you have a project that you’d like help with, let’s discuss.

Sailing through the Arctic Circle, I’ve been thi Sailing through the Arctic Circle, I’ve been thinking a lot about my dad and how he was the inspiration for taking this trip with Adventure Canada. Ever the adventurer and always a risk taker, I could feel him urging me to step out of my comfort zone and explore a part of the world that neither of us had ever been to before. I only wish that he would have been able to witness it with me.

But tonight, as I watched the sun play hide-and-seek through the clouds, I could feel him right there next to me. I silently thanked him for igniting my wanderlust, and as the tears rolled down my cheeks I also felt a sense of gratitude for this once-in-a-lifetime experience. I miss you so much Daddy, and although the pain of your passing will never go away, I take solace in the fact that you will always be in my heart.

From spotting humpback whales to almost being nailed by a calving iceberg, this trip is full of adventure. Today we spent time in Ilulissat, Greenland, the place where icebergs are born and the home of a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

We cruised out to Orcas Island and came upon a pod of 32 orca whales. I can hardly believe how close they came to our boat!

Debbie founded Dream Fetchers, a Huntington Beach-based non-profit that rescues disabled dogs who have come from abusive backgrounds. She has also formed @theunstoppabledogs, who spread joy to everyone they meet. Today I followed them to one of their favorite spots, @topdogbarkery.

    “Would that every freelance writer had such a talent for a nice turn of phrase, the Swiss clock precision of meeting deadlines and the amenable attitude towards suggested improvement that Danielle commands. That would make every editor’s life a dream.”

  • Allene Symons, Author of Aldous Huxley’s HandsAllene Symons, Author of Aldous Huxley’s HandsSanta Ana, CA

    Danielle was a great help to me before my book launch in so many ways. She designed a website and even solved the problem of incorporating several complicated graphics I wanted to include. She also helped with press releases and provided overall hand-holding, and she was always responsive when I had questions. That meant a lot to me too. I recommend her highly!
