The Woman Behind Sunny Skye

Hi, I’m Danielle – founder of Sunny Skye Financial Solutions.


I grew up in a small farming community in rural Michigan where sleeping in wasn’t an option and sunshine was a rare luxury. My work ethic was shaped early by my father, who worked multiple jobs to make sure we always had food on the table. I started working as soon as I was able — babysitting before I was even a teenager, and eventually moving out on my own at 18.

I became the first in my family to earn a college degree: first an Associate’s in Accounting, then a Bachelor’s in Business, and eventually an MBA. It wasn’t easy. I worked full-time, raised a family, and went to school—all at once. I made it through with the support and love of my family and a whole lot of faith.

We moved to sunny Florida when the kids were little, right at the start of the 2007 housing crisis—a leap of faith that tested our resilience but ultimately strengthened it.

Over the course of my career, I’ve supported businesses across a variety of industries. I’ve built more than spreadsheets. I’ve built relationships, trust, and lifelong friendships. Finance and accounting are what I do best and I’m passionate about helping businesses get the clarity and support they need to thrive. Bookkeeping, done right, is foundational. And too often, I see good people overpaying taxes or struggling to understand their financial picture because the back-office setup just isn’t right.

And as for the name?

Sunny was our family’s first dog – a sweet corgi mix with a gentle soul and the biggest heart and personality. She brought so much joy to our lives and lived a long, happy life before passing at the age of 14. Skye is our youngest family dog, a Great Dane–Husky mix, who just turned two in July 2025. Her heart is as big as her body, and her love runs just as deep.
Their names are more than just a company brand, they’re a tribute to the love and loyalty that’s been a constant in our lives. That’s the kind of relationship I strive to build with my clients, too.

Let’s connect. I’d love to hear your story, understand your needs, and help illuminate your path to profitability.
