No stranger to the pageant stage, Denise has represented Canada at several international pageants, has hosted, judged, and been an on-stage Portuguese translator.

She has worked behind the scenes with the Miss Universe Canada contestants and with the show production for 10 years. She views pageantry as a platform for personal growth, which is what fuels her passion to empower our contestants each year.

She is grateful for the friendships and camaraderie pageantry has forged over the years, and looks forward to many more years to come with the Miss Universe Canada family.
