Hey there!
I’M DANA…
….and I started blogging here in 2010. I studied marketing at University of West Georgia and have an MBA in Innovation and Entrepreneurship from University of Georgia. I work in digital marketing (analytics, social media strategy) and I’m passionate about where this space is headed. I created this place as an outlet to write.
About the Name
I decided to call my blog TheGreatDanaJ.com because I believe that this blog documents my quest to become the best version of myself. I wanted a blog name that incorporates me and gave a description of who I’m on a quest to become. As Michael Jordan says,
