A native of Ohio, and recipient of both Bachelors and Masters degrees from Ohio State University, Deanna lived in practically every state in the Union before ‘settling’ for the vastly superior climate of Southern California. Deanna traveled widely in school, studying in both Italy and the UK. Along with co-worker Dave, she represented OSU in their first appearance in the 2009 International Solar Decathlon. Deanna is a pro beach-jogger and aspiring surfer; she also enjoys Zumba (which we had to Google), yoga, and speaks fluent Italian.
