ABOUT DTH
A global, award-winning creative leader and change agent, Danielle has been instrumental in reigniting brand love for Uber through culturally resonant and purpose-driven campaigns. Her work spans continents and has earned international acclaim—including two consecutive Gold Film Lions at Cannes and Brand of the Year at Spikes Asia. Danielle has led iconic campaigns such as Football is for Food, Trains—Now on Uber, Delete Uber, Vaccinate the Block, Protect, Tonight I’ll Be Eating, and Uber Don’t Eats. Tasked with rebuilding trust and reputation, she has helped shape Uber’s modern identity and creative resurgence. Her work has transformed reliability—a core brand attribute—into an emotionally resonant brand promise, most notably in the parent brand campaign On Our Way, featured during the 2024 Summer Olympics.
A self-proclaimed Type-A creative, Danielle’s agency experience spans multiple industries and iconic brands including Microsoft, P&G, Audi, Bacardi, Coca-Cola, AT&T, and Tommy Hilfiger. Her Gold Effie-winning campaign We Counter Hate used machine learning to remove over 20 million instances of hate speech from Twitter, demonstrating her belief in the power of creativity paired with technology. At Wunderman Thompson, she led the groundbreaking launch of Tommy Hilfiger Adaptive—the world’s first fashion line designed with and for people living with disabilities. The work earned three Cannes Lions and sparked the creation of the agency’s Inclusivity Experience practice.
Danielle believes the future of creativity lives at the intersection of ideas, data, and technology, and her body of work offers a compelling glimpse into what’s next for the industry. She lives in Lafayette with her husband Steve, two children—Benjamin and Nina —and their black Labrador retriever, Ramona Frances.
