When I represent a client in a business dispute, I find I am acting as an historian.  Like an historian, I interview eyewitnesses informally but also formally, such as through depositions and examination in court.  I also comb through documents, which now are not only paper but more commonly in electronic form.  Similar to an historian with a political bent or thesis to prove, I use advocacy skills to portray the facts in a light most favorable to my client.  I enjoy telling my client's story to a judge, arbitrator, mediator, or jury as a very creative process.. On a personal level, I have been married to the same wonderful wife for over 32 years and have two grown sons, whom I coached in Little League and Babe Ruth Baseball.  I play racquetball almost every day and am trying to get better in the frustrating game of golf.

When war broke out in the Ukraine, Dana worked tirelessly to seek a “travel lane” for Ukrainians fleeing to the U.S. who have relatives here. Dana engaged in public advocacy efforts to place pressure on decision-makers to create a dedicated “parole” program similar to Canada’s, which is now a reality in the U.S. via the Uniting for Ukraine Parole Program. Dana addressed the CT Business and Industry Association (CBIA) as a speaker on the topic of Immigration as a solution to CT labor shortages and raised awareness about the benefits of welcoming Ukrainian refugees – and refugees in general - to the local job market.. In April 2022, Dana traveled to Mexico to assist Ukrainians in the Tijuana, Mexico refugee camp. She spent 3 days going back and forth through the U.S.-Mexico border representing refugees seeking humanitarian parole. She counseled and saw over 2,000 refugees be legally admitted in the U.S. While there, she basically lived in a refugee camp with many families, including babies and unaccompanied minors from Mariupol, and brought back with her to Connecticut three miracle cases of refugees who were able to enter only on their 3rd attempt with her help due to the difficulty of their cases. After returning from the Tijuana trip, Dana kickstarted a public service/ pro bono partnership between the Honorary Consulate of Romania to CT and the firm’s Immigration practice to match Ukrainian refugees to CT sponsors () that to date brought over 91 Ukrainian refugees to Connecticut by placing them with sponsors she identified.. In February 2023, Dana submitted oral and written testimony before the CT legislature on three different bills to advance economic opportunities for immigrants and their employers, including the creation of H-1B cap-exempt zones (enacted into law), reducing language barriers for the driver licensing test by introducing Romanian and Ukrainian among languages administered at the DMV (enacted into law) and reducing the cost of apostilles on documents to be used in foreign jurisdictions.. Dana regularly presents at Columbia, NYU, Quinnipiac University, UConn, Yale, etc, on the various types of visas and immigration strategies available to foreign students after graduation from their programs, with a focus on employment-based and entrepreneurship/investment-based immigration.  As a former international student herself, she enjoys mentoring new generations of international graduates through their journey to a US visa/ green card or citizenship, particularly in the O-1 and EB-1A categories for extraordinary ability.
