I
graduated with honors from Harvard University (Class of 2001), earning
a B.A. in psychology (focused in cognitive development). During
my four years at Harvard, I developed an interest in web and graphic
design, and began my own freelance design business. Screenshots
of my work can be viewed on the web and graphic
design section of this site.
My other artistic love has always been photography. I began doing
predominantly landscape and architectural photography when I was
in high school, and currently focus mostly upon sports photography.
One of my most popular websites is AmateurWrestlingPhotos.com,
which displays wrestling photos taken by myself and two other photographers
at various major national and international wrestling events.
DanielleHobeika.com contains photo
galleries displaying samples of my work in landscape, portrait,
wedding, and sports photography as well as some candid
photos from events in my social life.
Aside
from my creative endeavors, I focus on athletics. I competed for 11 years on the women's freestyle wrestling
national scene. Past accomplishments have included 2nd and 3rd place
finishes at the US Nationals, qualifying for the 2004 US Olympic Team
Trials, as well as serving 3 years on the
US Women's Freestyle National Team. After the 2008 US Nationals, I decided to end my competitive career in freestyle wrestling and have since began competing in submission grappling and training in mixed martial arts (MMA). I have not yet decided whether my training will be simply recreational or for competition, but either way I am enjoying making the transition to other disciplines.
I also decided to relocate from New York City to Naperville, Illinois in June of 2008. I will be working with the Overtime MMA Training Center to help manage their new MMA gym as well as working on other projects for the Overtime School of Wrestling and Project Torch.
Please feel free to email me any comments or suggestions at hobeika@post.harvard.edu.
If you are looking to hire a graphic designer, webmaster, or photographer,
