Her father, Steve Austin, is currently working as a CEO with the Mowanjum community in Derby.
As a result of only playing with the local children, during her formative years, Daneile is now able to speak fluent Ngaanyatjarra.
It is important that subject areas need to be sorted out to assist Daneile work towards using her language skills to develop a career path where her ability to speak ngaanytjarra would not be lost.
