About


“Dana has a bold vision that empowers individuals and organizations to achieve personal, professional and financial success. I can attest firsthand that the power and effectiveness of her work can help anyone exceed the limits of what they thought possible.”

-John Zion, Owner and Managing Director of MKI Artists and Co-Founder of Our Concerts.Live

”I started working with Dana on an executive coaching level in 2014 at a time when my industry and company was facing massive disruption both internally and externally.  She guided me and ultimately my entire staff team and organization through some incredibly challenging times. At the same time she supported us in being able to seize the opportunities we may have missed in the face of such challenges.  Her understanding of psychology, mindset and personal achievement was instrumental to our success and has remained a constant in our firm.

- Vanessa Bergmark, Owner/CEO Red Oak Realty
