A Message From Our Founder and CEO

Meet Some of DaBella’s Veterans

Military service leaves a lasting impression. We asked five DaBella employees what inspired them to serve and how their military experiences continue to shape their lives and work today.

Michael Ashton, DaBella general manager and U.S. Marine Corps veteran

Michael Ashton

“The discipline, leadership, teamwork and patriotism inspired me to serve. I learned the importance of proper planning, and I use those lessons every day.”

Josh Brown, DaBella district manager and Army National Guard member

Josh Brown

DaBella District Manager · Redding, California

“I initially joined for the college benefits, but the leadership skills I developed inspired me to continue serving, including in Iraq. I use those leadership skills every day.”

Hailey Hardy, DaBella customer service administrator and U.S. Navy veteran

Hailey Hardy

“I was inspired to serve because I wanted to help others. One of the most important lessons I learned was respect, which is essential when serving our customers.”

“Adapt and overcome. Every day, there are new challenges that arise, and this skill has allowed me to be flexible and adaptable,” Strong said. “Veterans Day is a time to reflect and be thankful for the freedoms we have because of those who serve. I served because I had a calling and felt led to stand up for those who couldn’t and would do it again.”

Tyler Udelhoven, DaBella call center manager and U.S. Air Force veteran

Tyler Udelhoven

DaBella Call Center Manager · Dallas, Texas

“The most valuable skill I learned in the military was emotional maturity. It helps me maintain an even temperament through daily challenges. My advice to anyone transitioning to civilian life is to go at your own pace.”
