Our Q & A with Dana

What made you want to join EWPBF?
I have been working in Palm Beach County for 20 years and have always looked up to the women were members of WEBPF. Once I achieved an executive level in my career I quickly applied.

How has EWPBF helped your career so far?
In the short time I have been a member I have developed relationships with so many extraordinary women. Some have had long careers in positions similar to mine and offer sage advice, others are at similar stages in their career and we can commiserate as well as celebrate each other’s success.

How has EWPBF helped your personal connections with other professional women so far?
Having a supportive network of women is so crucial, and I have found that every member is truly engaged and dedicated to lifting each other up. I have also been able to reach into new networking markets that my daily work would not necessarily introduce me to. The diversity of industry, age, ethnicity and neighborhoods of our membership is a joy to be a part of. I not only find new friends, but new places to eat, play and so much more.

What is your proudest moment since joining EWPBF?
I was very honored to be named new member of the year.
