Bio
Patrick O'Connell
Danae made my job a better experience because she's both a pleasure to work with and a highly competent contributor. She's somebody I could entrust a task to and feel confident that it would be completed both efficiently and successfully. Danae asks the right questions and effectively challenges practices that are not providing superior value. She's a problem solver whose talent is matched with her dedication to doing good. Happy to have had the pleasure of working with Danae and can't recommend her enough.

Danae has written several blog entries for the Florida Coalition Against Human Trafficking. I was blown away by the way she expresses herself on a dark issue such as human trafficking. The blogs are brilliant and grasp the essence of the modern say slave trade. It has been a wonderful expirence working with Danae and I know that her future is a bright one.
