Jill M., Educator and wellness lead

Dana's wellbeing knowledge and passion are contagious and every time I get to spend with her I always leave energized with powerful questions to consider and practical ideas I can implement. She is incredibly generous with her time and expertise! I learned more from a few hours with Dana than I have in years of University! She is able to explain different practices around wellbeing in a way that is simple, practical, and impactful. If you are lucky enough to cross paths with Dana, your work will be forever impacted! Her knowledge of making positive wellbeing change is only matched by her passion in this area!

"Your work will be forever impacted "

Kellie Cummings, Vice President of Marketing at VIA Institute on Character

Dana is a first-class consultant, visionary, and critical thinker. As a partner, Dana is completely committed to shared goals from the first conversation and begins percolating on creative ways to unpack the project. She’s one of those rare collaborators you want to turn to time and again, because the process and the end product are sure to dazzle. As a visionary, she can see innovative ideas and creative approaches while staying on-task and avoiding fruitless tangents. As a critical thinker, she fine-tunes the goal, the work process, and the final deliverable for both efficiency and quality. All of this she does with admirable flexibility and curiosity — while making others feel valued. It’s always really exciting to work with her — an energizing rush from beginning to end.
