A person of many names: owner, founder, executive assistant, writer, paralegal, and traveler – Danielle Kaplan is all that and so much more! In 2019, having just left her role as a patent and trademark paralegal she hit the books (again) to determine what really mattered most. She set out to work with local startups in Dallas, wanting to get a small taste of a big world. The difficulties surfaced when her interests in social innovation, technology, legal, finance, the arts and so on all forced her to choose one path or another. But Danielle found that Dallas is a great place to make moves and she decided to pursue life in a way that has made her successful in a field that demands so much versatility. Surrounded by possibilities, Danielle began working as a fractional assistant for a variety of clients, in all sectors. She picked up the administrative pieces of the companies she worked with, turned them on their head, and found a path that led her all the way to Mood Virtual Contractors.
Danielle’s background helped her visualize the different areas of operating a business and found that they all hinged on a strong administrative foundation. What others called “loose ends,” she saw as opportunity and that turned into what is now a company that focuses on building relationships, implementing good ideas, and returning results.
My hopes for every position were to simply see these small companies grow, for the right voices to be heard and to find my own success through helping others.
All of those goals depended on having a mindful, innovative, and empowered Mood; thus Mood Virtual Contractors was brought to life.
I believe having a great Mood and a passion for what you do will deliver the best results.
I started working in applied sciences, studying optics at Texas Tech University. During this exploration in higher education I found a similar interest in Economics and Global Relations which I studied to completion at The University of Texas at Dallas.
If that wasn’t enough, I also obtained an Advanced Trademark Paralegal certificate all before I began working in law firms, both big and small.
