by Jenna Mahannah | May 13, 2019 | RSS News

Are you wondering why we included “Ladybeast” in our newest team member’s name? To be honest, we did this for reasons other than the fact that Dani is a competitive power-lifter set to compete at World’s for the second time this October. WOAH. 

Dani is truly a “ladybeast” in all of her roles, including her most important role as a mom to her two beautiful daughters, Sydney and Tilly Jean. When Dani isn’t running her two kiddos around or power-lifting, she enjoys teaching horseback riding to people with special needs, spending time with her boyfriend, Justin, coaching softball and ANYTHING outdoors. Dani is passionate about working with today’s youth and hopes to start more programs or after-school activities that encourage kids to get involved in power-lifting or fitness.

When asked about what is most important to her Dani said, “My family, my faith and doing all I can while on this earth to help others, build friendships and leave a positive impact in any way possible.”

Dani has worked in the insurance industry for five years and feels that her role allows her to help people through some of their best and worst times. Be sure to welcome Dani the next time you are in the office!  ….and if you bring her coffee or chocolate she will be your new best friend!

Welcome to the team Dani! We are so happy you chose RSS as your new home.
