I have worked with Denise for over a decade and most recently on a sector leading contemporary art project called Tomorrow's Tigers for WWF. The project raised over £1.1m for tiger conservation and has a huge PR value to WWF. Denise acted as the lead project manager, with sole responsibility for the project, coordinating a wide range of internal and external stakeholders, including partner Sotheby’s, curatorial and PR teams. Denise also brought an understanding and empathy of the charity's objectives, working sensitively to manage the various demands of the internal teams.
Denise brought creative flair to the design and marketing of the project. Her positive approach to problem solving and detailed planning always made me feel that this high-profile project was in safe and capable hands. Denise has been a trusted partner and I have had the pleasure of working alongside her successful leadership on numerous complex and landmark charity events. The confidence and leadership that Denise employs as well as her unstoppable determination to bring the very best to each project makes her a joy to work with. I have look forward to working with her again soon! Lucy Sargent Director of Philanthropy and Events, WWF Denise has organised several extra special events for us, including the Wellbeing in Schools Awards in Kensington Palace and also Mansion House. With her highly professional, efficient, calm and balanced approach, Denise brings reassurance, support and a sense of humour.

I have had the pleasure to work with many events professionals and can truly say that Denise is amongst the best of them. She is cool, calm and collected under pressure, wonderfully accommodating and detail orientated. I would absolutely recommend her as a fantastic project manager.

I worked with Denise on the launch event for Global Entrepreneurship Week, and it was a great experience. It's a high profile event, featuring Secretary of State and 200 VIP guests, so it had to run smoothly. Denise was terrific, she briefed me brilliantly and regularly, and guess what, the event ran like clockwork. Professionalism in action.
