Over the years, I’ve been honored to receive recommendations and accolades from colleagues. Here are just a few to show you what I can bring to your team!
Content Marketing
“I had the chance to work closely with Danya for over a year and a half, and she’s one of those colleagues who leaves a permanent mark on how you think about great content marketing. She brings a rare mix of creativity, clarity, and execution power – and she does it all while keeping teams aligned and projects moving forward with ease.
Danya is the kind of person who can jump from shaping a complex go-to-market (GTM) plan, to building compelling product narratives, to tightening up messaging based on competitive intelligence and industry intelligence – all in the same week. Her product marketing instincts are sharp, and her ability to translate product details into genuinely valuable content is top-tier.
She also has deep experience across social media, SEO, and content distribution, which means she doesn’t just create great work, she makes sure it actually reaches and resonates with the right audiences. Add in her skill in events / event management, and you get someone who understands the full ecosystem of how a brand communicates, online and offline.
On top of that, Danya is exceptionally strong in project management and cross-functional communications. She knows how to bring the right people together, structure the work, and keep momentum high without burning anyone out. She’s steady, thoughtful, and consistently a step ahead.
Working with her made my job easier, and honestly more fun. Any team would be lucky to have someone with her breadth, depth, and attitude. If you’re considering hiring or collaborating with Danya, do it.“

– Product Owner at Preparis
“During her time at the Greater Milwaukee Committee, Danya served as our marketing, communications, and events specialist who worked in tandem with many of our programmatic initiatives and civic agendas. Danya contributed in many ways to the success of the agency because she can contribute strategically while also maintaining an extreme attention to detail. During her time at the GMC Danya facilitated an entire re-branding process, managed the implementation of Salesforce, built and maintained our online presence, and executed all of our press relations.
Danya is eager to learn new areas of marketing and communications. She is also an excellent writer with a creative approach to developing materials, and, as a consummate team player, Danya worked well with all of our colleagues. With a pretty significant workload and her time divided across many responsibilities, Danya balanced competing needs with humor and professionalism.
I recommend Danya for any position that will draw upon her skills. She is a remarkable colleague and contributor.”

“I’ve loved working with Danya on the marketing team. She is a wealth of knowledge in almost every area of marketing. Her organizational skills and attention to detail are second to none, and we wouldn’t have been able to see the same great output without her input. I’m excited to see who is next in line to have the honor of working with her.”
