She has presented for audiences as diverse as Fortune 50 C-Suite Executives, non-profit organizations, mothers of every life stage, genealogists, women trying to balance it all, and even her school-age peers.

Dana holds a BA from Vanderbilt University in Communication Studies, where she honed her speaking skills that she had been practicing since the age of 9 when she became involved in a public speaking program through her church. She spent more than 23 years as a branding and marketing executive for an entertainment company and has been an active community volunteer for more than 25 years.
