Hello! I'm Dana.
I graduated with a BFA in Graphic Design from the University of Florida School of Art + Art History. I moved back to the Tampa area where I went on to work as a studio designer at 22squared for two years and discovered my passion for advertising.
My creative approach often consists of trying to find tension points behind an idea while always trying to push that idea to its limit. I am always hungry to succeed and inspired by the fast approach of advertising. I have quickly learned that design feeds my creative beast and I am tirelessly searching for new opportunities to learn and perfect my skills.
You can find me always staying late to make sure the job is done or even just offering up moral support. I have an instinctive sense of empathy and I love connecting with people. I want to drink that company kool-aid. I care about culture and above all, I care about making great work. I put my heart into everything I create, almost too much sometimes (but is this really possible?).
Some hobbies include my strange love for geometrical shapes, textiles and collage. I'm a typography nerd, crystal collector, full-time cat mom and big Twin Peaks fan. Audrey Horne is my spirit animal and David Lynch is an idol. Typically you can find me drinking gin (or coffee), talking to cats in alleyways, obsessing over something vintage or honestly just watching horror movies.
I want to get to know you. I know to know what you're about. So let's talk!
