As a recent breast cancer survivor, Danella is deeply committed to giving back to the breast cancer community and creating meaningful, lasting impact. While she continues working toward the long-term vision of launching her own nonprofit, her passion for service is already at the center of everything she does.
In October 2025, in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Danella launched her first annual Breast Cancer Awareness Community Eventāa completely free event open to anyone directly or indirectly affected by breast cancer. Rooted in connection, education, and empowerment, this event reflects Danellaās belief that no one should face breast cancer alone. She is proud to share that this initiative will continue every year, always free of charge, as a way to uplift, honor, and support the community.
Beyond her advocacy work, Danella is an active volunteer throughout the Twin Cities. She generously donates her time to several nonprofit organizations, including NeighborWorks, CAPI, PRG, and Housing in Action, where she frequently speaks at first-time homebuyer classes to help individuals and families build pathways to homeownership.
Danella is also passionate about inspiring the next generation. She has volunteered her time speaking at Minneapolis-area schools, introducing scholars to the possibilities of a career in real estate and entrepreneurship. To date, she has spoken at her former middle school, Olson Middle School, as well as Washburn High Schoolāsharing her journey and encouraging students to dream big and lead with purpose.
Through service, advocacy, and education, Danella continues to pay it forwardāstanding in solidarity with those affected by breast cancer and investing deeply in the communities she serves.

Licensed for almost five years now, Danella humbly hit the ground runningāand never looked back.

Real estate runs in Danellaās blood. Her mother, a now-retired and well-respected REALTORĀ®, earned āRookie of the Yearā before Danella was even born. Inspired by her motherās path, Danella proudly followed in her footsteps, earning the very same āRookie of the Yearā title herself. Since then, her list of accolades has only grownāincluding Top Producer and Inspirational Agent of the Year. Today, she ranks in the top 5% of REALTORSĀ® in Minnesota.
Danellaās passion for real estate is deeply personal. She bought her first home at just 25, and over the last decade, sheās bought and sold four personal properties.

Nothing beats working with an agent who truly gets it.
