Danielle H.

Danielle was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer at 34. She’s now 2.5 years cancer-free and passionate about supporting other young adults navigating cancer. As a school social worker, Danielle has always been driven to help others—and Cactus Cancer Society deepened that passion by introducing her to creative coping through their art programs. Now, as a Rooted Voices Advisory Board member, she’s excited to help expand access to meaningful, age-appropriate support. Danielle lives in D.C. with her cat, Ash (famous for his extra toe and fist bumps), and enjoys kickboxing, crocheting, and spending time with friends and family.
