After her academic endeavors, Dena moved to Atlanta where she embarked upon new experiences and enhanced her craft. Training under Executive Chefs Newton Pryce and Tracey Camberino, and Head Chef Brett Self, Dena mastered the art of baking.
Chef Dena worked and volunteered everywhere, from mom-and-pop bakeries and churches to corporations and universities.
