Recent graduate of the University of Maryland, Dana started out as an intern on the Empire team. She worked closely with our past nursery manager and effortlessly absorbed the processes and nuances of our structure. Once the internship was over, she worked as a Nursery Assistant and became more involved with the daily operations. When the opportunity to fill the manager position came to light, Dana was our obvious choice and with some guidance has been able to grow right along with not only the nursery stock, but the company as well. With a BS in Environmental Science and Technology, Dana has used her practical knowledge of plant ID, ecology, and environmentalism to gain experience in the field and we have all the confidence that Dana will continue to help Empire complete planting projects with healthy and viable plant stock.
