Bio
Kathleen Thompson
I have worked with Denise during my tenure at both Roebbelen and Retail Pro International. Denise has a unique mix of skills and experience she brings to an organization which is why we recruited here at Retail Pro to head up our HR department. As Director of HR at Retail Pro she has accomplished more than I could have imagined - taking our payroll in-house and managing employees and 1099 contractors world-wide. She is also integral in managing the financial component of payroll and HR, given her background as VP and CFO at Frontier Fence. Not only does Denise boast an HR as well as finance background, she is a paralegal. She has drafted and edited scores of contracts for our company saving thousands of dollars a year. I highly recommend her work, but hope we can continue to work together for years to come.

I've been working closely with Denise for nearly 3 years (and hopefully this will continue much longer!) During this time, Denise has helped me personally with 2 hiring situations, a challenging employee termination, as well as numerous other confidential and significant HR situations running the gamut of what occurs in an entrepreneurial software company like ours. In every case, without exception, Denise has been competent, helpful, thoughtful, and has always strictly maintained the confidentiality of these sensitive transactions. I'm proud to serve in our company alongside Denise, and I strongly recommend her for any similar opportunity that she might encounter.
