  • “Danni came highly recommended. The problem we had is that we had never launched a program like the DEI Initiative before. Her passion and drive for real DEI, plus her experience as a DEI practitioner at Coursera was an excellent fit (and God-send). I really appreciate her 'not all sizes fits most' approach. Meaning, for every event and/or content Danni has helped us deliver, she always challenges me to think outside the box or beyond what is on the surface. Whereas, some providers have a cookie cutter approach. It was truly a pleasure working with her! P.S. when are you taking new clients?”

  • “Dr. Buie's approach is experience and impact based. She's been there and done the work and knows what challenges and opportunities lie within the work. Additionally, her experience in both public and fast growing tech companies gives her a perspective that fits most companies' stages of growth. Danni’s the best!”
