About Dana Robinson

Dana Robinson is a writer living in Houston with her husband, Bryan, and their teenage son. She has been writing and editing professionally (and amateurishly) for most of her life. Earliest works include a few furtively written diary entries and a slightly amorous poem about PacMan.

Now the Editor here at Just Vibe Houston, Dana is passionate about discovering interesting stories in and around this city. Two things she loves about Houston are the coffee and the weather, and that’s not a joke.
