About Dana

A concierge's eye, carried into the world

A natural-born jetsetter, Dana thrives on sharing her passion for travel with her community. Born and raised in Los Angeles, she has lived in Michigan, New York City, Spain, Australia, and Israel before settling back home in LA — and her favorite memories span from walking the Great Wall of China to eating and drinking her way across Tuscany.

Before turning her lifetime of travel into a full-time craft, Dana built her career in luxury hospitality, most recently at The Peninsula Beverly Hills. That instinct for the details that make a stay feel effortless now shapes every itinerary she designs — as a SmartFlyer affiliate of seven years.
