Denise’s interest in travel led her to complete a Master’s degree specializing in Tourism Management from The George Washington University, which adds to her expertise in the travel industry. She has also spent time as a Tour Manager giving her the amazing opportunity to travel all of Western Europe. However, her true passion for Italian culture and lifestyle always brought her back to Italy. This ongoing romance with Italy and its culture developed into a desire to become an Italy Travel Consultant to help others experience Italy at its finest and on a deeper level. As a result, Your Friend In Italy was born. Denise is also Founder of Turin Italy Guide, an online travel guide and blog by locals about Turin and all of the Piedmont region.
