Thank goodness for those years as a girl scout. With her creative problem-solving, thoughtful analysis, efficiency and resourcefulness, Danielle Dacus truly does embody the scouting philosophy of leaving the world a little better than she found it.

Whether she was teaching women to run their own business in rural India through the Himalayan Education Foundation, helping to redevelop the catering department of the University of Washington Housing and Food Services, or creating new lifeguard training programs at the American School in Japan, Danielle’s work has been driven by one central goal: making meaningful differences in the lives of others.

And she’s made a difference since her first day on our team. At Sumpter & Gonzalez, Danielle manages all of the nitty-gritty details of client casework: from case calendaring and drafting motions to handling investigation and discovery, Danielle is utilized as a resource in just about every aspect of a client’s case.

And we are all much more than “a little better” because of Danielle.
