About: Hello! My name is Danielle Malzi and I am the occupational therapist at Washington Elementary School. This will be my fourth year as a Wake County Occupational Therapist; however, I have been a practicing occupational therapist for 13 years. I was born and raised in Ocean Township NJ. After high school I attended Saint Francis University in Western Pennsylvania where I earned my master’s in occupational therapy. My husband and I relocated to the Raleigh area about 7 years ago. We currently have two beautiful children and a lovable black Labrador retrieve named Ace. In my spare time I enjoy running, baking, reading, crafting, and going to the park with my kiddos. I am so excited to serve as the occupational therapist at Washington Elementary School this year!
