Danielle Merkel, global real estate advisor with Premier Sotheby's International Realty's Venice office, brings a distinctive blend of discipline, service and compassion to her real estate practice. A retired U.S. Army helicopter pilot and decorated military officer, Danielle was awarded the prestigious Air Medal for her exemplary service in combat during deployment to Iraq. Her accomplished background also includes experience as a commercial airline pilot and a licensed registered nurse, reflecting her commitment to helping others in critical and transitional moments.



A resident of Venice and a proud transplant from Philadelphia, Danielle holds a bachelor's degree in nursing from Keiser University in Lakewood Ranch. She has lived and worked in beautiful Southwest Florida for more than 12 years, cultivating a connection to the communities she serves. Her mission is clear: to ensure her customers, friends and relatives get the best value possible when buying or selling a home, always prioritizing transparency and advocacy.



Danielle is passionate about guiding customers through seamless, informed transactions, whether they are relocating, investing or searching for their ideal vacation property in this little piece of paradise. She is a member of the REALTOR® Association of Sarasota and Manatee, and her knowledge of the Venice market and surrounding areas makes her a trusted resource in identifying neighborhoods that ideally align with each customer's lifestyle.



As a supporter of the veterans community, Danielle has served with Operation Warrior Resolution and contributed to the Honor Guard at her local American Legion. Her work is driven by empathy, integrity and a genuine desire to make a difference.



Outside of real estate, Danielle enjoys spending time with her two daughters, exploring the outdoors, boating, practicing yoga and soaking up Florida's coastal beauty. Known for her friendly nature, quick wit and tireless dedication, she not only helps her customers find their dream homes, she often becomes a lifelong friend along the way.
