Dana Valikai
Advertising Director. Sports Marketer. Teacher. Coach.
My career plays in the overlap of communication, sports marketing and now teaching / coaching. For 20+ years. I've worked at the top ad agencies on brands such as Gatorade, Nike, Coca-Cola, lululemon, Vitaminwater, TaylorMade, and Champ Sports. Given my passion for soccer, I'm most proud of my work leading two World Cup campaigns, collaborating with renowned athletes to develop culturally relevant content on a global scale. More recently, I've taken my advertising knowledge to the classroom where I teach at SBHS's MAD Academy as well as coach soccer.
