    Speaking about her distinctively positive personality, Danielle said, "If someone feels happy because of me, that's a blessing for me. One of the reasons I chose to be a singer is because I wanted to spread joy through music."

    She shared, "Just like how music has comforted me for a long time, I want to do my best to be someone who can bring joy and healing to others."
