Danna Hinz PROOF
BUILT FOR PRESSURE
Danna Hinz and Melanie Miller are the kind of women you want in your corner when life gets intense. Built for high-pressure moments and big life transitions, this Front Range duo has turned calm under fire into both a lifestyle and a career.
From Deep Waters To Deal Tables Long before she was negotiating contracts, Danna was learning how to stay steady underwater. As a teenager around her father’s dive shop, Adventure Scuba, she became a rescue diver at 15 and an instructor at 18, mastering the art of breathing, assessing, and moving forward with intention. Today, after more than 27 years in real estate, that same unflappable mindset still defines the way she serves her clients.
Melanie’s path to real estate started in a TV control room. With a broadcast management degree, she worked at Channel 31 “before it was Fox,” earning an Emmy for video editing in the analog era. When television’s long hours stopped fitting family life, she pivoted into real estate—and stayed. Decades later, her eye for detail, timing, and story now guides buyers through one of the biggest purchases of their lives.
Two Women,
One Powerful Partnership
Danna founded The Hinz Group at RE/ MAX Alliance years ago, and Melanie first joined the team in the 2000s before officially returning in 2023. Today they operate as Front Range Homes at RE/ MAX Alliance: two distinct personalities, one deeply experienced team.
