Before founding Gracias, Deana was co-founder at strategic consulting firm, Agency of Trillions, which was acquired by Indiegogo in 2017. Deana is also an advisor to female-founded, travel startup, Allcall, and co-founder of CO, a co-working space in Rhinebeck built on a co-operative, community ownership philosophy. 

Deana really takes us to school, today. We take on democratizing cryptocurrency and generating financial empowerment for young women and teens. Oh, and if the terms Bitcoin and cryptocurrency are new to you - have no fear, Deana breaks things down in a very, easy-to-grasp way. I promise. 

Deana shares her experience as a non-tech startup founder - including some of the highs and lows of tethering to her "idea baby."  Also, we explore mindsets around money and generational wealth as well as scarcity and abundance.
