ABOUT DANA
Hospitalitarian Humanitarian
If ever the phrase "long story short" were to apply, it's right here, right now.
A natural-born storyteller, I knew in my teens that I loved to take care of others and that I'd set out to do it studying and working in the Hospitality industry.
During my senior year at Boston University's School of Hospitality Administration, I was involved in the opening of Woodward at The Ames Hotel where at 21 she became Food & Beverage Manager. An instant hotspot in Boston's dining, craft cocktail and nightlife scenes, it's there where I gained some of my greatest friends & mentors to date and really began my journey, both educationally and professionally, in the business.
Though I began my career and currently reside in Boston, I also spent some time building my resume in Miami and Denver. If I look familiar, you may recognize me from the Boston College Club, Joe's on Newbury, Woodward at The Ames, Stella, Oak Tavern (Miami's Design District), Ocean Prime (Denver & Boston), Menton, Mistral or Tatte (or maybe you remember me from my Wheel of Fortune episode). Other organizations I have been a part of include Coca-Cola Refreshments, Walt Disney World, Yelp and America's Test Kitchen and positions held span General Manager, Event & Marketing Coordinator, Server, Bartender, Market Development Manager, Promotional Model, Personal Assistant and more.
No matter my role, the setting or the occasion, my focus is on taking care of my guests and making memorable, lasting impressions while providing seamless, spectacular service. Whether it's booked for a private gig, running a successful team and shift or serving dinner to your grandmother, executive board, or Victoria Beckham and the New England Patriots, I remain cool, quick-witted and in-tune while going above and beyond expectations. I am a hustler through and through and I cannot wait to wow you.
