Dina Malancea is a rising professional originally from Moldova, who relocated to West Springfield, MA in 2010 during her childhood. She embarked on her academic journey at Springfield Technical Community College before making a successful transition to Western New England University, where she majored in finance.

Having cultivated a passion for art during her early years in Moldova, Dina’s commitment to education temporarily interrupted her artistic pursuits. Throughout her teenage years, characterized by limited free time due to work commitments, she cherished moments spent with friends, exploring art museums, botanical gardens, beaches, and discovering new cities. High school introduced her to art and graphic design classes, further igniting her interest in creative fields, complementing her lifelong passion for fashion.

Dina’s professional trajectory commenced in retail during high school and progressed through an internship at Enterprise Holdings as a management trainee. These experiences honed her skills in hard work, perseverance, client relations, and meticulous attention to detail.

Currently serving as an Operations Support Specialist at Pioneer Valley Financial Group, Dina’s decision to pursue a career in the financial industry is underscored by her proficiency in mathematics and a personal drive stemming from being raised by a single mother after her father’s passing. This background instilled in her a determination to ensure financial stability, not only for herself but also for others.

At PV Financial, Dina is enthusiastic about the knowledge she continues to acquire and the opportunity to assist clients in effectively managing their finances. Her goal is to empower clients, ensuring they feel in control of their hard-earned money.

Outside of her professional pursuits, Dina enjoys leisure activities such as shopping and indulging in TV show marathons. Alongside her husband, they frequently host gatherings at their home encompassing game nights, movie nights, and dinners. Family time holds a special place in their hearts, with shared trips and activities. Exploring new breakfast spots on Saturdays and trying out new restaurants regularly is a favorite pastime for the couple.

Dina is an active participant in her community, finding fulfillment in attending church, where she formerly served as a Sunday school teacher. She has dedicated her time to
church volunteering activities, including park cleanups and donations. Notably, she plays a vital role in Operation Christmas Child, a program that provides Christmas gifts to children in low-income countries, contributing to the preparation and shipping of these gifts from her local church.
