Get to Know Daniela

Born in Colombia and raised in sunny Florida, Daniela (Dani) now calls the vibrant city of Nashville home. With dreams of starting her master’s in Social Work by January 2026, she has been on an inspiring journey of advocacy since she was just nine years old. Her heart truly shines when she works with children, ensuring they have a voice and that their families are part of the conversation.
Previously, Daniela (Dani) was a proud Coordinator at Conexion Americas, where she helped first-generation students thrive by teaming up with school counselors and social workers. It’s all about creating the best outcomes for those kids, and she brings her passion to every interaction.
When she’s not advocating for the next generation, you’ll find Daniela (Dani) outdoors, enjoying the beauty of nature while hiking or paddleboarding with her three adventurous dogs or hunched over reading a book. Her life is a blend of purpose and play, and she is always ready for the next adventure!
