In 2009, then-Delegate (later to become Judge) Clay Athey invited Daniel to interview for a vacant position, and she realized that a judgeship eventually might be possible for her.[1] She then interviewed on-and-off for ten years.[1] In March 2020, Daniel was appointed as a General District Court Judge for the 26th Judicial District of Virginia.[1] She began her term on June 1, 2020.[1]
