While working with an adoptee in 2018, Dana Leeds developed an innovative method to visually sort DNA matches into clusters based on a test taker’s four grandparent lines. Known as the Leeds Method, this revolutionary technique led to speaking invitations at i4GG’s International Genetic Genealogy Conference, RootsTech 2019, and GRIP’s “Practical Genetic Genealogy” course being coordinated by Blaine Bettinger. Dana enjoys making DNA results understandable and easy to work with for genealogists of all levels.
