Denise’s life was turned upside down (or we should say “right side up”) when she met Jesus (and Chris) while recovering from alcoholism in 2014. She is a fiery reformer with a passion to see the world know Jesus after not knowing Jesus for the first 40 years of her life; then realizing that God really does speak, He does miracles today, and that the gift of prophecy is real.

Denise founded Seven Ministries in December 2021 under the inspiration of prophetic downloads and operating models, paired with the generous giving, legacy-building heart of her husband Chris, initiated by a divine ask to start a non-profit in one week. This mission fuels the passion of her heart which is to lead people to Jesus, to teach people how to hear from God, to equip in the gift of prophecy, to normalize God-given spiritual gifts through community, and to build heaven on earth by implementing kingdom-strategic solutions.

Denise operates Seven Ministries in her spare time, and she has been a full-time REALTOR® in Fort Wayne, Indiana, since 2020. Prior to real estate, she spent 25+ years in business working in Finance, IT, and cross-functional program and project management obtaining a Project Management Professional (PMP) certification in 2012. She steps into facilitation and structuring of work naturally and at ease, typically brainstorming operating models, change management, and processes to implement change using the gift of prophecy. She was ordained as a Chaplain with Christian Chaplains & Coaching in May 2025.

Chris and Denise live in Fort Wayne, Indiana and share four wonderful children and three beautiful grandchildren. You would think they would be empty nesters, but they have two dogs and five cats who keep their house full!
