She undertook extensive postgraduate ultrasound training and internships at leading university hospitals and trauma centres in New York and New Jersey, gaining exposure to a wide range of pathologies and complex clinical scenarios. Following completion of her medical ultrasound qualification, she was appointed as a diagnostic ultrasound instructor, teaching postgraduate students while also working in university hospitals including the Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital, where she collaborated closely with vascular surgeons and academic clinicians, including providing intraoperative ultrasound support for interventional procedures.

In 2011, she relocated to the UK and joined the ultrasound team at Royal Free Hospital NHS Trust, where she worked as an Advanced Practitioner Sonographer, performing and reporting on a comprehensive range of ultrasound examinations across abdominal, pelvic, obstetric, breast, vascular, musculoskeletal, and small-parts imaging. In 2014, Daniela completed a Master’s degree in Medical Ultrasound at Bournemouth University, gaining extensive specialist training in musculoskeletal ultrasound and ultrasound-guided injections. She is a longstanding member of the American Registry of Diagnostic Medical Sonography and the Alliance of Physician Certification & Advancement, and in the UK she is a member of the Society of Radiographers and the British Medical Ultrasound Society. Daniela is the founder of Sonoworld Diagnostic Services, a private ultrasound practice based at the Hale Clinic.
