St. Lawrence University Athletics

A Mattituck, N.Y. native, Danielle was recruited to St. Lawrence by Bernie McKinnon as a soccer goalie, but ultimately never played for Coach McKinnon or tried out for the soccer team. She played one season as a lacrosse goalie for Coach Dotty Hall as a first year, before being convinced to join Dotty's field hockey team the following fall. Admittedly Danielle was much better at field hockey than she ever was at lacrosse and during her time on the astroturf Danielle was a Regional All-America honoree and was named the Outstanding First-Year Student-Athlete. She was the starting goaltender for the Saints' 1995 NCAA Elite Eight field hockey tournament run and holds two records in St. Lawrence's record book for career save percentage and saves in a season. Following graduation, Danielle traveled the world and took a job teaching study skills, which landed her in Poland and ventured to many places overseas, sparking her inner travel bug. She now works as the SVP of Pinnacle Leadership and Team Development as a leadership coach and organizational advisor. She resided in Newburyport, Massachusetts on Plum Island, with her partner Angie and her stepchildren Harry and Harper.
