Carlee: Dana, could you start by sharing your journey and experience so far at MSD, Inc?
Dana: Certainly! My association with MSD spans over two decades, initially as a subcontractor with Black Electric and later owning Express Electrical Services. After selling my business and evaluating different opportunities, I reconnected with Johnny in January 2021, who proposed I join MSD as an employee. This conversation led to the start of the electrical division at MSD, and it’s been a fulfilling journey ever since.
Carlee: That’s quite a journey, Dana. What do you find most fulfilling about your role here?
Dana: I have to say, it’s the people. I find great satisfaction in being a problem solver for others, making their lives a tad easier wherever I can.
Carlee: It seems like your focus is on fostering connections. Could you share a project or initiative at MSD, Inc that you’re particularly proud of?

Dana: Oh, definitely. My 31 years of coaching girl’s softball have greatly mirrored my role at MSD. Managing a team at work is quite akin to coaching, and it has positively influenced my approach here.
Carlee: That’s a wonderful synergy. Dana, could you share a piece of advice or a significant learning experience from your career?
