From corporate employee to full-time entrepreneur, Dana’s career has evolved from being an in-house digital designer to brand strategist, speaker, and coach to creative professionals.

Dana wanted to highlight the businesses, artists, and organizations in her community. She founded Cheers Creative, a consultancy that provides industry leaders with clear brand messaging, brand design, and web design.

Since opening Cheers, Dana’s work, story, and writings about design and entrepreneurship have been featured and referenced in Essence, Forbes, AfroTech, and more. She also co-created and launched a 7-week branding accelerator that helped entrepreneurs nationwide create clear messaging, pivot their businesses, and increase profit during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Dana was chosen by Grow with Google to serve as Google Digital Coach for her local Memphis community, providing free digital skills training and coaching to help Black and Latinx small businesses reach new customers, thrive online, and grow

Dana hopped on the podcast today to talk about how her self care has evolved as she has stepped into her prime.
