Get to know the guy behind the tie by reading his answers to our 5 questions below:

Eden: What do you look forward to in this role?

Dana: I look forward to diving into the renewable industry and being a part of the process from inception to a renewable-generated lit lightbulb. I also look forward to being a part of the on-site biodiversity partnerships (and fresh honey, of course).

Eden: What do you plan to bring to this role from your previous experiences?

Dana: I hope to bring a new perspective to problem-solving.

Eden: Who would you say is your biggest supporter?

Eden: What do you hope to achieve while at Eden?

Dana: I hope to achieve a comprehensive understanding of the solar industry and understand the larger impacts of the industry on the environmental, social, and governance issues it touches on.

Eden: And finally, share one interesting fact about you that not many people know about.

Dana: My favorite cycling modality is track racing, more specifically, the Madison race.

Thanks, Dana! We’re glad to have you on board.
