Denisse Jensen is the Executive Director of GiGi’s Playhouse in Indianapolis, which is a nonprofit Down syndrome achievement center with only 2 employees that provides free services to over 600 families.
In this episode, you’ll hear Denisse tell us about a tragedy that she experienced when she was 21 and how that impacted her and led her to starting her career in aquatics and water safety, about how her dad acted as a mentor to her and how he taught her the differences between being a transactional leader and a transformational leader, and about how she got started with GiGi’s Playhouse, about some of the fundraising events that the organization hosts, and some of the programs and resources that they provide.
