Danielle Wells

Danielle brings over two decades of experience in higher education to her role in Advancement. She has held admission counseling positions at liberal arts institutions including Providence College, Wellesley College, and Boston College, and has long been a champion for access, opportunity, and student success.

A chance encounter with a Middlebury Advancement staff member while traveling in China in 2024 sparked a new professional chapter—one focused on connecting alumni and families with opportunities to make a lasting impact through philanthropy. Danielle now supports alumni and parents in the greater New England area.

She holds a B.A. in social work from Providence College and a M.Ed. in school counseling from the University of Massachusetts Boston. In her free time, she enjoys exploring new places, cooking, spending time with her husband and stepson, and keeping rhythm as an avid tap dancer.
