I develop client education and strategic editorial assets for institutions serving mass affluent and emerging high-net-worth audiences. My work covers retirement income planning, portfolio strategy, wealth transfer, risk protection, philanthropy, and the behavioral realities of wealth, with a focus on clarity that holds under scrutiny.
Selected work includes Synovus Private Wealth, New York Life Investments, American Express Business Insights, and Family Business Magazine. I’ve also done projects with Northern Trust, Fifth Third Bank Wealth and Asset Management, RBC Wealth Management, Raymond James, and Allianz Global Investors.
Narrative architecture is part of this work. I build the underlying structure that keeps client education coherent across topics, channels, and publication cycles. I work with marketing and communications leaders to develop editorial assets grounded in disciplined sourcing and planning-level accuracy, written in an institutional voice that respects regulatory awareness and reputational sensitivity. The goal is consistent clarity over time, without drift, noise, or credibility gaps.

"Dahna and I have worked together on multiple projects for a financial client. I think, more than many other writers, she has her finger on the pulse of the private wealth demographic. Her deep understanding of their financial issues and interpersonal dynamics sets her apart, particularly for projects where this insight matters most. Dahna combines this expertise with a strong ability to find academic-level data and research to support her work. She is also a skilled, reliable writer who is easy and pleasant to work with. I highly recommend her for data-driven, culturally attuned financial writing and strategic content development that speaks directly to private banking and wealth management audiences.” —Lisa, Managing Editor, Contently

I interpret inflation, tariff policy, market cycles, and economic dislocation for private wealth audiences—connecting macroeconomic developments to portfolio implications and long-term planning decisions.
I cover financial exploitation, cybersecurity risk, and asset-protection strategies affecting affluent households and aging clients, with attention to behavioral vulnerability and institutional safeguards.
I write advisory-focused content for commercial banking and business finance audiences, including succession planning, capital strategy, ownership transition, and professional advisory ecosystems for growth-stage and multigenerational enterprises.
I develop estate, legacy, and intergenerational planning content for affluent families navigating wealth transition, fiduciary responsibility, and long-term stewardship.
