About Danielle

I'm Danielle! I'm starting my journey on the creative side of the industry and very excited to be part of this community.

Currently an Entertainment Underwriting Specialist working on Film and TV insurance. I work for a company that provides insurance for Film and TV productions with budgets up to $50M. I read scripts, review budgets, shooting schedules, stunt/pyro/animal activities, cast medicals, and more in order to offer coverage to productions.

I'm also a student at the Academy of Art University working on my Masters of Arts degree with an emphasis in 2D Animation. My goal is to write and create animated short films; eventually animated feature films. My stories focus on tough, but relatable subjects that families and individuals go through such as depression, addiction, and grief, but I'm keeping my options open to other genres as well.
