Denise has 4 children and 12 grandchildren. She has been married for 42 years and had the pleasure of being a stay-at-home mom until her youngest started kindergarten. Afterwards, she went back to school, where she was approached by an organization that asked her to work for them. She had never heard of this type of work, but knew she had always enjoyed helping people. Little did she know that this type of work would fulfill her more than she would have ever expected. What she gained from it and the new outlook on life would leave a lasting impression, and 29 years later, she was still working for this company before she came to Alegria.

She started working in this field in 1995. She worked mainly in ILS, SLS, and job support, but found this field to be the passion she never knew she had, where she finds incredible fulfillment.

What she finds most enjoyable is the clients; she has learned so much from them, and envies their outlook on life.

She has been with Alegria for a little over a year now as an HA. This organization truly cares about the individuals it serves and only wants the best for them. It also cares about its staff and truly works as a team for the betterment of all.

Outside of work, she loves spending time with family, going out into nature, and music. She feels that music and nature fill the soul.
