Dana Monique Akhavuz, 53, was last seen leaving her home in Eugene, Oregon, on January 8, 2020. Known for a vibrant personality and close ties to family and friends, she did not return or make contact, which was uncharacteristic and prompted a missing person report to the Lane County Sheriff’s Office. She is described as a white female, 5 feet 9 inches tall, about 250 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes, and sometimes used the last name Baker.

The Lane County Sheriff’s Office opened the case as 20-6527 and her disappearance was entered in NamUs as MP75479. Public details about what Dana may have been doing that day, where she intended to go, or whether there were confirmed sightings are lacking, and few new leads have emerged since the initial investigation.

If anyone in Eugene knew Dana’s routines, recent contacts, or saw her on January 8, 2020, please share what might help locate her.
