July 28, 2026 - 20:56

Evan Danyo, a 2025 graduate in business administration and data analytics, is putting his passion for numbers to work in a fresh entrepreneurial project. Rather than heading straight for a corporate desk job, Danyo has launched a venture that blends technology with old-fashioned customer service. He says the idea came from noticing a gap in how small businesses handle their daily operations and client interactions.

Danyo's new company focuses on providing tech tools that are easy for non-experts to use. He believes many small shop owners and service providers get overwhelmed by complicated software. His solution aims to simplify tasks like scheduling, billing, and customer follow-ups. The goal is to give business owners more time to focus on their actual work instead of wrestling with spreadsheets.

The alum credits his college coursework for giving him the confidence to build this from scratch. He learned how to analyze data patterns and spot inefficiencies, which helped him design a system that actually saves time. But he also stresses that technology alone is not enough. Danyo insists on a personal touch, offering direct support to clients who get stuck. He sees this mix of high-tech tools and human help as the key difference between his business and larger competitors.

So far, the response from local businesses has been positive. Danyo is now working on expanding his client base while keeping the service simple and accessible. He hopes to prove that a recent graduate with a good idea and a willingness to listen can still make a mark in a crowded market.
