Ready for Her Next Chapter
December 13, 2024
• As Denise Garlick nears retirement from her role as the state representative for the 13th Norfolk District, she came to the studio to discuss her career.
At an event held at Powers Hall on December 9th, the town of Needham had a chance to say ‘Thank You’ to State Representative Denise Garlick for her years of service to the community in many different capacities. As they celebrated, the goodbyes may have been difficult, but far outweighed by the support shown for her as she enters a new phase of her life. Municipal producer Yuxiao Yuan spoke with her as she prepares to leave public office, and looks back upon a remarkable career.
