About Denise

Bio

My name is Denise Hensley and I am a third year Business Administration student concentrating in Finance and minoring in Economics. I also have interests in financial technology, politics, policy, gender studies, and marketing. I hope to one day work at the Federal Reserve of the United States, and hope that along the way I meet some amazing individuals who make the path(s) I take memorable.

I'm passionate about

figuring out the "whys" in life. It gives me a place to start in understanding the rest of the world.

Areas of expertise

Accounting, Finance, Gender Studies, Marketing, Public Policy, Social Media

The TED story

I watched my first TED Talk in my chemistry class my junior year of high school. Throughout my college years, my professors have used TED videos to share ideas with students and Chimamanda Ngozi Adiche's "The Danger of a Single Story" and "We Should All Be Feminists" talks addressed topics close to me. I hope to one day attend TEDxWomen and hear the ideas, projects, and stories of women in the world.
