Every month, we’ll be spotlighting someone from the LERETA roster. Meet Denise Amiri our Contracts Administrator. Get to know Denise below!
- What is your role with LERETA? I develop the needed contracts for our client and vendor relationships. By researching and coordinating with multiple LERETA departments and SMEs, I draft agreements that meet expectations and protect LERETA’s processes and assets.
- How long have you worked with LERETA? I’ve been with LERETA for 10 years.
- What is your favorite thing about your job? I love sleuthing, problem-solving, researching and learning new things. Most of all I love the people I work with. We have some pretty incredible people working here.
- Tell us about your family. I’ve been married 46 years and I have a son, Adam and a daughter, Anisa and now a new son-in-law, Flavio. I also have a fur baby Bailey and 2 grand-dogs Dundee the Blue Healer and Simba the Staffie.
- What do you like to do in your free time? Work in my garden, bird watching, cooking, crafting, drawing and painting. l’m also restoring my Mom’s 1963 classic T-Bird.
- Where did you grow up? I grew up in Forest Falls, 65 miles east of Pomona. Nothing beats the 4 seasons, unspoiled nature and the quiet…my nearest neighbor was 2 miles away. I live in Rowland Heights now and my home backs up to Puente Hills Nature Preserve so I have lots of wild animals and birds — including a mated pair of Coopers Hawks. Reminds me of home
