The Kennedy's brought their daughter into the world the night before Christmas. Theodore (an established, well-known physician) and Hayley (who at the time had been on the road to becoming one herself) named their one and only child after Theo's father Daniel and Hayley's mother Lorraine. Hayley put her schooling off for the first 5 years of Danielle's life to stay home and raise Dani the way she thought was best, knowing she didn't want her baby feeling neglected with both parents gone all the time. Some time after Danielle turned 5, Hayley picked back up her medical schooling. It took another 7 years before Hayley finally got her medical license, just before Danielle began high school.

The family had begun their lives in Florida where they'd lived for the first 10 years of Danielle's life. Danielle spent a lot of time over at friend's and family's houses, including the Wallenburg's and the Diedrikson's while growing up. Her favorite, of course, had always been Max. Their competitive spirits pinned them against each other. It was all fun and games to Danielle, but seemed to be much more to her cousin. Shortly before she began middle school, however, Dani's father got a job offer in California that was more than promising. They couldn't pass it up, and the move took place immediately, ripping them away from their other family members. They spent the next 7 years out in The Golden State. It wasn't until a month ago that the family had decided it was time to move back to their home. Sadly for Danielle, it would happen right in the middle of her Senior year.

It's been years since Danielle has seen her other family, or even remotely talked with them other than on social media every now and again just to keep updated on all the happenings back home. She wasn't too enthused about leaving in the midst of her Senior year, but the one upside she is looking forward to is graduating from the same high school her parents did, which just happened to be where they met in the first place. Hayley had been good friends with Theodore's younger sister throughout high school. It wasn't until a few years after Hayley graduated that she pursued her interest in Theodore. Which, obviously, you know how that story turned out.

Danielle most excels in her English and History classes, but what she really enjoys over all is her Art classes. Sketching and Photography have always held her interest more than anything, as she has drawn since she could pick up a pencil and got her first camera when she was 6-years-old. She doesn't much care to take photographs of people, but much rather prefers taking pictures of animals and scenery. Busy downtown cities, lush green mountainsides or beautiful sandy beaches and the waves that crash up onto them. Danielle has her dreams set on becoming a wildlife veterinarian while doing wildlife photography work on the side. For now, of course, she just has to get through her final semester of high school.
