Danielle Metzger

Branch Co-Leader Picture
Danielle Metzger is a long-time resident of Antelope Valley (28 years and counting!) who works for a local telemetry company. For Danielle, signs of CMT appeared in childhood. A clumsy kid whose knee would often “pop out” of place, at the age of 14, Danielle saw an orthopedic surgeon for her persistent knee problem. A nerve biopsy confirmed that Danielle had CMT, and later, a blood test determined type 1A. Danielle’s son and mother also have CMT. In her position as co-leader, Danielle is looking forward to meeting new people, spreading awareness, and learning more about CMT! Danielle enjoys spending time with her husband, son, friends, and family.
