Denise Love Hewett developed a passion while young for film that has been a guiding light for her throughout her career. She combined this with an interest in fashion and interned with fashion magazines and as a costume designer for various shows and films, including Ugly Betty with ABC and Sex and the City 2. She crafted her own major at NYU called "Clothing as Culture". Post graduation, she worked in live event management and spent nearly two years at Viacom as a Segment Producer. Roughly five years ago, Denise launched Scriptd, a marketplace for scripts promoting democratization while streamlining the process of acquiring scripts. She is also host of the podcast "Do the Work".
