We asked Dana on his roots with TMC:

I was on a ski trip with a few friends in 10th grade. We went into TMC walked upstairs and you were spinning some records and we watched you do your thing and we chatted a little bit. We were so stoked to see all the rad ski movies we had read about all in your shop it was like something out of a dream! We were definitely kids in our candy shop. And then when I move to Whistler two years later I went in there a few times and eventually start working there waxing skis and fixing skis at night and shredding all day. Living and breathing skiing basically, which was also like a dream. Always having freshly tune skis myself of course, which was nice. I wad completely immersed in the Whistler ski culture in that shop.

Dana's career highlights: 

As far as career highlights go, the first one would be winning the North American IFS a free ski tour in 2003. Then the next year got an invite to go shoot in Jackson with TGR tour for a few weeks and see how it goes. Ended up there all winter, filming the best Segment I have ever gotten, and winning Powder Magazine's Video Awards "Breakthrough Performance". The next career highlight was probably in 2009 when I won the Full Throttle award at the powder magazine video awards, for my opening segment in the TGR film "Light The Wick"
