About –
Danny

Danny has spent her life putting other people first—and that mentality spills over into her creative practice as well.

Throughout her career as an experience designer she has collaborated with engineers, strategists, creatives, analysts, and subject matter experts to define and evolve brands invested in connecting with the people they serve through design and storytelling.

Equipped with boundless ideas and unwavering enthusiasm, Danny motivates her team through optimism, unrequited puns, and constantly asking “what if…“?

When she isn't exploring a new subject or trying to puzzle out a client's latest challenge, she can be found looking for new food adventures with her husband, Stephen, and fawning over their hockey-obsessed bernedoodle, Sergei Dogrovsky.
