I started modeling at a very young age. No, seriously, I started at birth. My mom, always wanting to capture the moment, was quite literally photographing her own birth! (Ask me for more info on this because it is a true story). Somewhere in the deep dark depths of our family photos, you will find newborn Dani shunning the camera in a “no paparazzi” motion. My mom, however, viewed it as a newborn me “high-fiving” the camera. I am gonna stick with the sassier version. Either way, I basically came out and instantly started my journey in front of a camera. My mom is a professional model herself, which is how I was introduced officially into modeling. As soon as I was able, my mom encouraged me to start. I was able to start in Florida and California with local brands and smaller gigs here and there. Fashion and Lifestyle were where I honed into the beginning of my modeling career.
