Denice has over 15 years of experience in multifamily housing development, financial management, and economic development. She has worked with various community-based organizations and faith-based institutions to implement strategies to advance housing and development policies. Denice has elevated the conversation around diversity, equity, and inclusion in leadership and in construction, both internally at EAH Housing and externally in the affordable housing industry throughout California. She has led an ongoing workshop series for SCANPH to discuss how developers can center inclusion in the affordable housing development and construction process. Denice has arranged successful meetings between people of color-led developer organizations in the Bay Area and the CA Deputy Treasurer. Denice strives to expand opportunities for bidding on construction projects for Black, Indigenous, and People of Color-led (BIPOC-led) third-party vendors, which are otherwise vastly underrepresented in the affordable housing industry.
