Dana Cantelo
A highly caffeinated, professional marketer by day, and a music-loving, vegan and toddler-wrangler by night. Most will say, Dana has always had a notable way with words and, therefore, blogging came naturally in her role as the Marketing Communications Specialist at Verduyn Tarps since 2021. She enjoys planning and interacting with clients at tradeshows and helping to manage all social media accounts. Dana's career highlights include obtaining both an Advanced Diploma in Business Administration (2015) and a Bachelor of Commerce in Marketing from Humber College (2020) while starting her own vintage resale business. Her resume consists of nearly two decades of various leadership roles in the fashion, beauty, transportation, and home improvement industries. She is dedicated to strengthening brand relationships and promoting brand loyalty through genuine connections in both the B2C and B2B markets.
