NICE TO MEET YOU

I'm Deonna

An experienced federal-sector EEO investigator and the founder of DA EEO Services. When I began my career as an investigator, the process felt overwhelming and intimidating. Although my 32-hour training gave me the foundation I needed to enter the field, I quickly realized there was still so much to learn about managing an actual investigation.

Fortunately, I had a great mentor who helped me understand the process, develop my skills, and gain the confidence to build my career. I created DA EEO Services to provide new and aspiring investigators with the practical guidance, training, and resources I needed when I was getting started.

My Story

I didn't set out to become an EEO investigator. I was looking for a career that provided flexibility, the ability to work from home, and a sustainable income. What I found was a career that combined structure, fairness, and real impact on people's working lives.

My 32-hour training gave me the legal foundation, but it didn't prepare me for the reality of my first case: the pressure of timelines, the judgment calls, the parts nobody tells you about until you're living them. I leaned hard on a mentor who'd been doing this for years, and slowly I built the confidence and skill set to manage cases on my own.

Now I do for new investigators what my mentor did for me — break down what the job actually looks like, week by week, so you're not learning everything the hard way.

Why I Do It

Federal-sector EEO work matters and makes a difference. Investigators are responsible for looking into serious workplace complaints fairly and thoroughly, and that responsibility can feel like a lot when you're new to it.

I remember what it was like to not know where to start — to have the training but not the confidence. That gap is exactly what DA EEO Services is built to close: practical guidance, real case scenarios, and resources that meet you where you are, whether you're aspiring to the field or already investigating your first case.
