Danielle Valente
Pleasure to meet you! I'm Danielle, a content editor at Real Homes with too many throw blankets and pasta bowls. I love sharing styling tips and researching the latest interior trends to help you create the space of your dreams.
Before my time at Real Homes, I was keeping busy at My Imperfect Life and woman&home. Prior to my tenure at Future, I was the editor of Time Out New York Kids and a news editor at Elite Daily. Throughout my career, I've been able to hone in on areas I love, including interiors, food, books, and the place I call home—New York City. My work has also appeared in Domino, Chowhound, and amNew York, among other outlets.
During my downtime, I'm usually reading, cooking, or rearranging my apartment...again.
