Let me tell you about myself

I'm deeply passionate about creating those "aha!" moments you didn't know you needed to know.

 My Education & Licenses:

I received my Bachelor's of Science in Forest Resources in wildlife sciences in 2012 from the University of Georgia's Warnell School of Forestry and Natural Resources and continued to receive my Master of Forest Resources in 2013. I received by registered forestry license for Georgia in 2018 (RF#2997), and in the Spring in 2025 I officially received by real estate licensing for Georgia (#446865) with the Keller Williams Golden Isles Agency.


My Experience:

After nearly five years with the Georgia Forestry Commission, I saw firsthand the unique challenges women landowners face, especially when they unexpectedly inherit forestland, which is what led me to start my own business, Land and Ladies in 2020. In 2016, I began developing women-focused workshops to help bridge that gap. Along the way, I had the opportunity to work with the nationally recognized Sustainable Forestry and Land Retention Program, both through GFC and later as a private forestry consultant. These experiences strengthened my skills in landowner education and deepened my understanding of the complex issues surrounding generational land and succession planning. In 2025, all of this came full circle where I now work on the ground with land management services and my real estate license — helping landowners take confident, sustainable steps for their family and land's future.


My Involvement in the Forestry Industry:

Having served in several leadership roles and being involved with the Georgia Forestry Association since 2014, and leadership positions at the regional, state and local chapter level of the Society of American Foresters since 2014, I'm very in tune and integrated within the forest industry as a whole. In 2020 I also received the Young Alumni Award from my alma matter, the University of Georgia's Warnell School of Forestry. I understand the processes from seed to stump. I'm a registered forester in Georgia (#2997) and have a passion for helping women landowners across the southeast.  Since 2016 I've specialized in women's focused outreach education and training development, which led to a partnership with the University of Georgia's Warnell School of Forestry to the launching of Land and Ladies in 2020. As of 2025 Danielle still leads her local SAF chapter a decade later and expanding her involvement in land management and land real estate sales.

Personal Facts:

I'm a wife, mom to three kids and landowner to our 41 acres of hardwood mix. We've started our homeschooling adventure, and I strive to always help my kids explore their passions and curiosity. I wasn't a straight-A college student and believe application and experience is JUST AS important as book-knowledge! Despite my lack of impressive undergraduate GPA I was accepted into the Blue Key Honor Society at UGA my senior year (2012)! My dream was to work in Disney's Environmental Education (one of many) but turned down an internship to Animal Kingdom, to have a chance to apply to forestry graduate school! Oh, and we have backyard chickens, a 14 year old dog and two cats!
