“Dayna is a wonderful extension of Pam. She creates such a great working relationship and is a tremendous gift.”
—Amy Schumacher, CEO, The Heritage Group
Prior to consulting for MCA, Dayna owned and operated an organization service. She helped clients let go of things—gently and without judgment—guiding them through the emotional journey of donating and disposing of excess stuff. She took great pride in transforming the lives and spaces of her clients. Dayna is also a dedicated volunteer, having served for three years as an elementary school PTA President with a talent for fundraising. Her efforts enabled teachers to add much-needed books, software, and school supplies to their classrooms. Currently, she organizes an annual golf tournament to help the local football team afford uniforms and transportation to away games.
Dayna is married to Rick, a love story that began when the two attended their high school prom together. Their son, Michael, is a three-sport athlete and they happily attend every game, meet, and tournament. But you don’t truly know Dayna until you have been spoiled by her cooking and hospitality. Her specialties are stuffed clams, manicotti, and spiedino alla Romana. The MCA team members and clients often indulge! If you’re lucky enough to get an invitation to her table, bring your appetite and plan on staying to the wee hours.
