Dana D. (born June 21, 1988) is a Media Studies & Film Graduate Student at The New School in New York City.

Born with a vivacious personality as big as her naturally wavy hair, the New York born (but New Jersey raised) self-diagnosed Television Guru has completely dedicated herself to the overwhelming educational duties that tend to consume her current state of being. With a Bachelor's Degree in Communication Arts and Television & Film from St. John's University, the 23-year-old aims to utilize her credentials and wannabe wittiness to obtain a fulfilling career within the entertainment industry. Presently, Dana is a Social Media Intern at NBCUniversal/Oxygen.

Early Life
Initially recognized for her athleticism, Dana realized the lack of monetary opportunities for female players, encouraging her to enter the theatrical community during her formative HIgh School years. The transition from on the field performances to behind the curtain seemingly shaped Dana's future ambitions of infiltrating the competitive world of entertainment. By obtaining the positions of Prop Master, Stage Manager, and Student Director throughout High School, Dana tapped into a newfound talent and passion, even if it meant abandoning the sports persona that honored her distant cousin. Although burden of carrying the DiMaggio last name proved to be quite difficult for the former athlete, Dana's immense fervor for the New York Yankees keeps her connected to that very cousin who gallantly roamed Center Field for her beloved baseball team. And yes...Dana is related to Joe DiMaggio. Allegedly. Or at least that is what she tells people.
