About Denise Stephens
Denise is a native New Yorker who grew up summering in Southampton. She began her professional career on Wall Street in the banking sector. After returning to graduate school and earning her MBA in Finance from NYU Stern School of Business, her desire was to do something with her education and experience that made a difference. She moved to Slovakia to work with local governments on capital market and banking sector development. She worked with government agencies across Eastern Europe, including Slovakia, The Czech Republic, Lithuania and Latvia.
She then moved to London, where she started her family. After her return to the US and residing in Manhattan for many years, in 2009 she and her family decided to move to their Southampton home full time. Her three children are thriving and attend school in the historic town of Sag Harbor. They love the fresh air and country life as well as the abundance of activities the area offers.
Denise is as driven in her personal life as in her professional one. She has run five marathons and is an avid cyclist. She has a keen eye for style and has spent much of her spare time in recent years working on decorating and home design. Most importantly, Denise takes the time to know her clients, the many neighborhoods and markets of the Hamptons and her fellow brokers.
