My Biography

I went from being a stay-at-home mom who couldn’t handle a gun to becoming an NRA instructor who actively helps women move from fear and apprehension about firearms to feeling safe, comfortable, and confident.

I am a certified gun instructor, training counselor, sponsored competitive shooter, safety officer, suicide and violence prevention advocate, and perpetual student.

    "Hi Danyel and thank you for this 5-star review, it is very welcome. We all admired how you put yourself on the line by taking the class so soon after laser eye surgery. It didn't stop you from achieving the certification, so well done, you! You did very well on the teachbacks and instructing on the range, and your questions helped drive the first day along too. Remember that we are all a resource for you and you shouldn't hesitate to reach out for any reason. Congratulations!"
