The 27-year-old has lived all her life in Glengormley and is a parishioner at Carnmoney Parish Church. She has a BA (Hons) Degree in Childhood Studies & Professional Practice Studies from Northumbria University, Newcastle upon Tyne.
Danielle worked in Carnmoney Primary School as a one-to-one Classroom Assistant with children with special needs before training for ordination.
