- Daniela has written more than a million words and over a thousand guides and how-tos — but her biggest achievement is the '60s linoleum glue she once scraped off a scullery floor.
- With a background in accounting, she can balance books with her eyes closed, but her real passion lies in making furnishings, paint colors, and gardens add up to the perfect home.
- Daniela started a small landscaping business pre-college, and her first project is still in place and flourishing.
Experience
As an editor for Hunker, Daniela's predilection for homes, interiors, and beautiful gardens shapes her editorial vision, and is a driver behind ensuring that every piece of content is precise and deeply useful to readers. Her professional career began with certifications in accounting, but her heart found its true home among the turnips, tulips, and tile samples. Daniela's journey from crunching numbers to home improvement and gardening took root as she renovated her great-grandfather's cottage and took over her mother's vast vegetable garden.
Education
Daniela studied accounting at Boston City Campus and Business College where she also completed a course in permaculture landscaping and design.
