Ana Milena was born in Santa Marta, Colombia and raised in the city of Barranquilla where she went to an American School until she got her High School diploma. Then she went on to Javeriana University in Bogota, the capital, to pursue her Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Engineer. As a professional she has worked with some private companies, but she has dedicated most of her time working in government entities. She worked with the Department of Energy and in the Department of Agriculture, as well as other Colombian Mining Companies. After more than 15 years of experience in these different entities, she became a consultant to the United Nations Development Program in Colombia, ultimately working for the Colombian President’s Office of International Cooperation, just before deciding to move to Florida.

Has been married to Gustavo Daza for 34 years and they have 3 sons and 4 grandchildren. Before her Bachelor’s degree, she lived in Plantation, Florida for about 4 years, while her husband was stationed with an official task from the government of Colombia. At that time she gave birth to her 2^nd child who after almost 20 years in Colombia, decided to come back to his native country and live here. Later on her oldest son, a physician from her same university, decided to get certified in the United States. He got his certification and went to Columbia University to get his Internal Medicine specialization and also gave his mom her first grand daughter.

After Ana decided to move to Florida, she worked in Port Saint Lucie for a year and then, after the construction collapse, decided to buy a services franchise and move to South Florida.

Now, Ana is the proud owner of Servpro of Sunrise, a female and minority owned company offering cleanup and restoration services. Together with her husband Gustavo, she successfully runs her business, doing mostly water and fire damage restoration, mold remediation and carpet and upholstery cleaning in the South Florida community.
