Background

About Dena Null

Principal-in-Charge, Sr Medical Planner and Healthcare Market Lead for Northern California, Pacific NW & Hawaiian Islands. Authentic, resilient, determined, reliable and a firm believer that sharing is indeed caring. Fascinated by the people and organizations who make the greatest impact in communities. Motivated by the power of accessible, adaptable, and inclusive design to uplift communities and organizations, and the importance of leading with empathetic dialogue to find the five “why’s” before jumping to the “how.” I approach each project by first having an honest conversation with our client and gaining a deep understanding of their needs and goals in order to realize the project’s full potential. The best part of my job is the people and relationships that have allowed me to be where I am today. As a leader, I make space for others to do their best work, be creative and aspire to innovate. My colleagues and clients are relationships that I want to foster. Those relationships don’t just end when the project is built or ends. It’s just the beginning.
