Her Story

About Danielle

Danielle Washington serves as Executive Director at a senior living community in Marietta, Georgia, where she has worked for the past 60 days. With 19 years in the senior living field, she began her career interning for six months at Cobb Senior Services in Marietta, Georgia, before being hired as a program specialist, a role similar to an activities director in a standalone senior center, where she remained for five years. Washington then moved into hospice and spent nearly six years at Del Mar Gardens of Smyrna, starting in activities before transitioning to social service director on the skilled nursing side. During this time, she pursued and obtained her Executive Director License, which allowed her to advance into her current leadership role. She earned a Master's degree in Human Services with a concentration in gerontology from Capella University and completed her undergraduate studies with a concentration in gerontology at Georgia State. Her company maintains membership in the Georgia Senior Living Association, and she remains actively involved in her son's basketball booster club.
