Meet Dana Parsons, the Coeur d’Alene enrollment specialist for Lewis-Clark State College.

A native of southeastern Ohio, she graduated from Muskingum University in 2020 with a bachelor’s degree in criminal justice. Dana and her husband owned a computer repair shop in her college town for two years, but when the COVID-19 pandemic struck, they decided to pack up and move to Coeur d’Alene in September of 2020 to be closer to her sister, brother-in-law and young nephew. After a brief stint taking classes at North Idaho College and getting involved in the NIC student newspaper, the Sentinel, she began working at LC State in December of 2021. Through her experiences at Muskingum University being heavily involved in the radio station, newspaper as editor-in-chief and videographer for the TV station and her time in the Sentinel, Dana decided that her goal is to earn her master’s in communication to teach media at the higher education level. When she isn’t at work helping students get started with their degrees or working on homework for her graduate classes, she enjoys PC gaming, digital art, painting and spending time with her best friend/husband.
