Dana Young

Dana Young has been very busy. Just try tracking her schedule of events on her site, the band, the jewelry, the comics, the Blog, the sculptures... the bounty of creativity that fuels her fire is truly magnificent! Check this: And see the link for her blog too! And see below for some links of her work. The videos are uncanny!

She was recently in China for her job as a senior jewelry designer, and notes in a recent email:

At work, I am running a small team of designers and sample makers at my current position and it is really good. We just landed a Macy's account which is huge for the company so needless to say, I have been completely swamped. :)

Meanwhile, my bandmate and I are working on a video and album release this year. I created a comic book that we are releasing with a digital download.

Here are a couple links to jewelry (the HSN ones have reviews and also have a video of the products, which is cool)

It is my great pleasure (balloons, streamers, confetti) to bring Dana Young (grad 2005) into the fold of the IDalum blog!
I'd lost her for a while, but she found the blog, and as I was certain of long ago, has used her whimsical vision, her spanking-hot sense of nyc fashion, and her very grounded business head to bring her to a very happy place as a senior jewelry designer, monster-maker, illustrator, and musician. as she notes;
"I am currently a senior designer at a small jewelry company in midtown. I've been through a lot of jobs since we last talked, but they all propelled me really far forward which is great. This one has only been for about 7 months, but they have me lined up for the head designer position come summer. I'm pretty much already the acting head designer without the title, which I like."
and "I doing jewelry for JC Penny, Dillards, Arden B, Bebe" and others.

She's got a great blog http://enzosattic.blogspot.com/ that all should check out and I'll update with images of her work.

And finally the band -
"Then i am merging that project with my band so that the merchandise can promote either thing: http://littlecommabig.com/ The website is preliminary with only demos right now, but it's getting there. I'll have the updated version in a couple of week.
I am very happy to have Dana here, welcome!
