Coppola joins with a career spanning sales leadership and clinical research. She will help expand Hydr8's mission throughout fortune 2000 companies as well as its Elev8 Equine Division.
NEW YORK, NY — July 15, 2026 — HYDR8, one of the country's fastest growing refreshment service companies specializing in workplace hydration and break-room refreshments, announced today the appointment of Diana Coppola as Director of Commercial Strategy.
The appointment comes as HYDR8 continues evolving from a workplace hydration provider into a broader wellness company focused on evidence-based products and services to both human and performance animals.
Coppola spent more than a decade in sales leadership at Redwood Media Group, where she led a team of eight representatives and ranked as the publication's top producer for six consecutive years. She later transitioned into clinical research at Northwell Health where she served as lead coordinator on a clinical trial evaluating SAGE-217, which ultimately became the first FDA-approved oral treatment for postpartum depression in 2023.
Since 2024, Coppola has volunteered with HorseAbility, a nonprofit therapeutic riding center located on the campus of SUNY Old Westbury. The organization provides equine-assisted programs for children and adults with disabilities and special needs. Her volunteer work reflects a long-standing passion for the healing connection between people and horses.
In the role, Coppola will lead commercial strategy across Hydr8 and Elev8 as well as the company's new ACTIV8 brand of curated healthy snacks.
HYDR8 is a NY/NJ-based innovator transforming workplace hydration and break rooms with sustainable, health-focused solutions.
