Originally from Michigan but last from and professionally educated in Connecticut, Denise joined the Perfect Smile Dental staff in 2014 with an expansive resume and 30+ years of experience as a dental hygienist.
Having a Bachelor of Science in Dental Hygiene and a Master of Science in Bio-Nutrition from the University of Bridgeport, Denise’s career has included work not only in traditional general and periodontal practices, but also portable service to skilled nursing and long term care residents. Her advanced degrees afforded her positions teaching in a career school, state college dental hygiene program, and in service staff lectures. She has represented at service and major brand product trade shows, and was the marketing/event planner and emcee for a local dental specialist in professional and community arenas.
Denise’s genuine enjoyment of people and concern for their well-being is evident in her spirit and care for them, as she subscribes to the philosophy that “Give a man a fish, you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, feed him a life time.” And so it is with her patient education!
She resides with her musician husband, their two daughters and two dogs in New Port Richey where they all enjoy the outdoors including biking, travel, the water, and the blessed wonders of each day.
