For years, Dayna was one of the top female rock radio personalities in the USA.

During her career, she was named one of the 100 Most Important Radio Talk Show Hosts by Talkers Magazine and nominated as Local Radio Personality of the Year by Billboard Magazine.
After leaving radio, Dayna created www.TheSpaceStore.com, the world’s largest space related e-commerce venture and www.SmartGirlsRock.com, a product line to encourage girls to make “smart the new cool.” She also founded www.OperationNationalAnthem.com, a series of free videos of U.S. soldiers serving in Iraq offered to venues throughout the country to play prior to the singing of our national anthem. For that, Reader’s Digest named Dayna one of the “35 People Who Inspire Us” in the May 2008 issue.
