Dana has worked in the ad industry for nearly 20 years, but you’d never know it looking at him – he’s fit as a fiddle with a fitness obsession. He’s created campaigns for clients like McDonald’s, Volkswagen, and State Farm Insurance as an art director, a writer and a creative director. He’s held positions for agencies in Boston, New York and Austin, Texas and has worked for some of the most highly lauded shops in the industry.

Much of Dana’s advertising work has garnered international recognition and been featured in Communication Arts, Creativity Magazine, and Lurzer’s Archiv. He doesn’t let it go to his head, though – give him a racquetball and time to spend with his beautiful wife and daughter and he’s a happy man.

Today, Dana lives in Austin, having recently moved there from his beloved Las Vegas, where he sat on the board of assorted magazines, theatres and contemporary arts centers and where he ran a popular gallery in the city’s rapidly emerging downtown.
