    Daniela is an absolute professional--I am so grateful that I found her!! I'm trying to step up the quality of my music and she really brought that to these tracks. The songs all came out exactly as I imagined, probably better even. I'm also not very technically skilled when it comes to mixing and she was able to interpret and nail every note I had. She's patient and really cares about the work she's doing--cannot recommend her enough!!
