Cornerstone Land Abstract

Number of years at firm: 9

One thing on my bucket list: I have so many bucket list items not yet completed that are related to travel, but Safari in Africa is top of my list!

When I am not working, I am: Traveling, hiking, reading, working out and spending time with my husband and three children. 

What recent project, transaction or accomplishment are you most proud of? I am so very proud of our new company rebrand at Cornerstone. We put so much work and effort into it, and I could not be more pleased with the outcome. We have redefined our company, and what a title company can and should be. We are helping more people than ever live the American Dream – hence our new motto – The Foundation of the American Dream. 

What makes this nominee a RISING STAR? 

“Danielle exhibits qualities that very few title professionals have. She is fully entrenched in all aspects of our industry, from business development, marketing, and brand awareness, to physically closing deals for our company. There is no aspect of a deal that Danielle cannot either add value or solve the issue herself. Her skill set is extremely unique and we are fortunate to have her on our team here at Cornerstone.” - Jason Hudson, CEO at Cornerstone Land Abstract
