First hand transition experience.

Learned to re-invent self at a very early age.  Dana’s father was in the military for many years and the family was transferred from place to place.  She developed an understanding of the transition process learning how to redefine herself and to keep moving forward by coming to terms with endings, working through the chaos of the unknown and experiencing the ups and downs and the wonder of new beginnings.
