About Danielle Glick

As the owner of DGdesign, a Dallas social media marketing agency, Danielle Glick has 15 years of digital marketing and multi-media design experiences. This background allows her to strategize, create, and execute social media campaigns that engage users and drive measurable actions via blogs, tweets, Facebook posts, photos, videos and check ins.

Danielle is a self-motivated, analytical and creative thinker. Before she started high school she taught herself how to hand-code HTML and CSS so that she could customize her own web page designs. She learned the techniques of interface design and graphic design in college classes, while co-op jobs allowed her to gain work experience in creating all forms of digital multimedia, including: photography, copywriting, video production, 3D modeling, Flash animation, and game design. Danielle graduated the University of Cincinnati with a cum laude Honors Bachelor of Science in Digital Design. She spent the first four years of her post-collegiate career as a User Experience Designer (UXD) or Information Architect (IA) before starting her own company, DGdesign social media marketing agency in Dallas.

Danielle loves social media marketing because it allows her to use all of her skills while getting feedback directly from users and tracking noticeable value for clients. Danielle also enjoys teaching others about social media marketing, both in training sessions and as a social media marketing speaker.
