Growing up on a family farm in Indiana, Danielle learned the value of hard work and compassion from her parents—a small business owner and a waitress. From helping to run the family farm to volunteering with various organizations in school, Danielle's heart was always drawn to helping others.

After earning a full scholarship, Danielle attended DePauw University, seeking a sense of community. It was during an internship at a summer camp for children with disabilities that Danielle discovered her passion for working with kids and families. With a master’s degree from Case Western Reserve University, Danielle began her career at a community mental health center, where she witnessed firsthand the struggles faced by families in poverty and within the school system.

In 2011, Danielle married Jason Bell, a Navy chief, and moved to Virginia Beach, where she continued her work as a clinical therapist while also teaching pottery classes to those in the community. Their journey led them to Georgia in 2015 after Jason’s military retirement, where Danielle embraced the South's charm and set out to make a difference in her new community.

Together with her husband, Danielle enjoys raising their 3 beautiful daughters, Diana, Avery, and Aliya. Danielle is an active member of her local Catholic church.
