Biography

Danielle began her career as an elite athlete in 2009, competing as a professional open water swimmer in the 5km and 10km disciplines, where she represented Australia at four World Championships. She later transitioned to triathlon, racing in World Cups and contributing as a swim-bike domestique during the Olympic qualification process. In 2021, Dani shifted her focus to cycling full-time, achieving rapid success by winning her first National Road Series title within just four months of competition. This breakthrough led to her progression into the Women's World Tour with Arkea B&B Hotels, where she raced as a domestique in some of the most prestigious cycling events worldwide including Le Tour De France Femmes, Paris Roubaix, La Fleche Wallone and Liege-Baston-Liege. Looking ahead, she will return to triathlon in 2026, bringing with her a unique depth of experience across three elite sports disciplines.
