Our Team
Denise H. Lollis
Chief Operating Officer
“It does not make sense to hire smart people and tell them what to do; we hire smart people so they can tell us what to do.” –Steve Jobs, Apple Inc.
Fostering an environment where all feel valued and encouraged to contribute is important to Denise. With oversight for compliance and operations, Denise strives to work daily with the team to accomplish the strategic allocation of resources aligned with client service and Firm goals. When these things are harmonious, much is accomplished and, she hopes, all feel that their contribution has made a positive difference.
