Daniela Santos — Senior Advocate

Daniela was born in Newark, NJ, but made the sunny move to Florida at age eight—just in time to meet Hurricane Charlie for her first big welcome! She earned her Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of Central Florida (UCF), which laid the groundwork for her transition into social work. Daniela chose this path to build deeper connections with youth and offer hands-on support during critical phases of their lives. Her passion for her field is driven by a commitment to empowering young people, helping them overcome challenges, and achieve their goals.
Outside of her professional work, Daniela is exploring new hobbies and activities, embracing the opportunity to grow and learn in different ways. Her enthusiasm for both her field and her personal growth reflects a commitment to continual development and a balanced, fulfilling life.
