About Dana

Dana has long loved both science and art and found the perfect balance of the two in geology. Her previous social science background and her experiences as a lab assistant and geology club president at Austin Community College have inspired her to work toward becoming a professor at a two-year institution. She will continue that journey this fall at the University of Texas in Austin.
