Bio: Dena is the busy mom of a 7-year-old son and a 2 year old daughter. In her “free time” she enjoys a good book, a glass (or 3) of wine, cooking, and looking forward to the day she may finally be able to pee in peace. Her biggest hope in life is that she will produce two happy, healthy adults who will treat themselves and others with compassion and kindness

Favorite Pediatrician: Dr. Mateo Lopreiato, Berlin Pediatrics, Berlin, CT. Dena says: This man will be up for sainthood someday!

Tip for Other Working Moms: “Motherhood is the most nauseating, fear inducing, thrilling and fulfilling ride at the amusement park. You are going to make mistakes, you will not be perfect. We do the best we can for our kids, love them like crazy, and hope they spend little to no time on a couch lamenting about their Mommy issues.”
