About Dana Dixon
Throughout his career, Dana has led planning and design efforts for a wide range of higher education projects, from campus master plans to academic, research, and student-focused facilities. He has collaborated with Treanor for years, contributing to projects including the Zachry Engineering Education Complex and the Instructional Laboratory & Innovative Learning Building at Texas A&M University, as well as Frisco Landing at the University of North Texas at Frisco.
A licensed architect and certified planner, Dana offers a unique perspective shaped by experience on both sides of the table: as a consultant and as a university employee. He understands how the larger campus environment and individual buildings work together to influence the student experience, institutional goals, and long-term success. His approach is rooted in listening, collaboration, and creating practical, forward-looking solutions that help clients reach further.
I am thrilled to join Treanor and for the opportunity to continue over 12 years of collaboration delivering exceptional design solutions that elevate institutional success for the universities and colleges we are privileged to support.
