Dana Forester

President and Chief Operating Officer of JDog Carpet Cleaning at JDog Brands

Combining Military service and private sector experience, Dana is uniquely positioned to help JDog Carpet Cleaning franchisees jump-start their businesses. She designed and leads JDog’s training programs and serves as the day-to-day contact for all JDog Carpet Cleaning business owners as they prepare to launch their business. She continues to work with franchisees after they have opened, providing operational support and advising them on marketing, management, and growth strategies.

Dana belongs to a very small community of women who have served as a Munitions Systems Specialist, a predominantly male field. She was honorably discharged from the Air Force after four years of service, during which she served under the historic 8th Air Force Headquarters, 2nd Bomb Wing at Barksdale AFB in Shreveport, LA, and at the 52nd Fighter Wing on Spangdahlem Air Base, Germany.

Dana comes from a strong legacy of military service. Most notably, her uncle, Ken Baldwin, served as an Army Paratrooper in WWII in the 101st Airborne, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, Easy Company, and was an original member of the ‘Band of Brothers.’
