Dana Hendrix isn't the conventional business leader. A troublemaker in school, he was initially forced to take accounting classes as a PUNISHMENT.

But when he realised he had a knack for finance and his planned journey to the NFL didn't materialise, he took his unique style, gut instinct, and healthy distaste of authority into the world of mortgages.

Still only 30, Dana is now SVP of finance at DSLD Mortgage which manages $575m of loans last year, with a target next year of $1 Billion.

He talks honestly about the tradeoffs he has made to earn his success, and what he's not so good at (clue: don't bother texting him).

If you've ever felt like an outsider in your industry, Dana is the proof you need that an outsider's perspective - with a good dose of confident delivery and trusting yourself - can give you an advantage in life.
