Dana Brindley

At Chicago Lifestyle, we believe in building lasting relationships, and Dana Brindley brings that philosophy to life every day. Originally from San Diego, Dana moved across the country to Chicago years ago and fell in love with the city instantly. Her own experience of relocating across the country helps her connect with clients, especially those moving to and from out of state. She understands firsthand the stress and excitement that come with such transitions, and she uses that empathy to guide clients through the process with care and insight.   Dana has spent a decade in the hospitality industry. These roles taught her how to thrive in fast-paced, high-pressure environments while delivering exceptional service. Her ability to build strong relationships and create memorable experiences with each guest has seamlessly translated into her real estate career, where she continues to put people at the heart of everything she does. Her time in hospitality has given her a unique perspective on anticipating client needs and ensuring satisfaction at every stage.   What makes Dana truly stand out is the personal connection she brings to every client interaction. Her philosophy is simple: take life one step at a time, stay present, and enjoy the moment. This mindfulness is reflected in how she approaches real estate, treating each transaction as more than just a deal but as part of a larger journey. Dana thrives on helping clients make informed, strategic decisions that align with their long-term goals, while making the process as seamless and enjoyable as possible.   Outside of real estate, Dana keeps life balanced with her personal passions. She's an avid audiobook listener, constantly learning and exploring new perspectives. Staying active through long walks and hiking helps her recharge, while traveling fuels her appreciation for different cultures and experiences. Most importantly, Dana cherishes spending quality time with her friends and family, ensuring that she brings the same warmth and care to her personal relationships as she does to her professional ones.   For Dana, being part of the Chicago Lifestyle team means more than just selling homes—it's about building a sense of community and helping others find their place in it. She's not just a real estate agent; she's a partner and advocate, committed to guiding her clients every step of the way.
