DANIELLE
Forté
hen you first meet Danielle Forté
you can’t help but notice how
stunning she is on the outside.
But after sitting down and talking with her for a moment you realize that she’s even more beautiful on the inside. She’s the mother of 3 beautiful kids and the wife of former Chicago Bears football player Matt Forte. Danielle grew up in the suburbs just outside of Chicago but has since moved her family to the city. Self-described as an “artsy” kid, Danielle graduated from Columbia College located in Chicago and founded 828 Brands, a family-focused fashion house geared towards women and kids. She also co-founded The What’s Your Forté Foundation with Matt whose mission is to invest in the equitable economic advancement of youth and families through partnership and purposeful relationships. Their contributions and dedication to giving back has been recognized by many throughout the community and we had the pleasure of learning more about Danielle, her interesting background, and her thoughts on being a millennial mom.
