DENISE
DAVIS
FOUNDER & PRESIDENT
Denise has always had a heart to give to others. When her son was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) it was not common within his age group, so he felt he was alone. Denise knew she did not want others to have to feel the same loneliness that her son did and was determined to create an environment where other young adults and families could share their thoughts, and get the resources and support they were looking for.
While Denise’s main goal is to support families with younger age children dealing with MS she is here to be a community resource.
When Denise is not working you can find her making memories with her family, traveling the world, cooking, dancing or shopping.

Hailing from the South Side of Chicago, Tony moved to Los Angeles after a successful career in brokerage. After graduating from the University of Wisconsin – Madison Tony remained involved with the leadership program that funded his education, The Posse Foundation. His time as a Board Member with Posse helped him uncover his passion for mentoring and advocacy.

While he enjoys leading large group workshops, he is most inspired by the 1-on-1 conversations he has with people that want to expand their world view and help others feel that Disney is place where everyone belongs.
