Meet the Business Owner: Deno C.
Deno has lived in Knoxville most of his life, having graduated high school in Knoxville, after growing up between Charleston, SC and Knoxville.
He was drawn back to Charleston, SC to attend The Citadel, where he graduated in three years in 1993. After college, Deno returned to Knoxville to work as a law clerk where he found his passion in the law.
He left Knoxville for Huntington (Long Island), New York to attend law school at Touro Law School, which offered him a scholarship.
After three years in law school, Deno had to decide whether he was going to start practicing law in New York, Charleston, or Knoxville. Family and the gravitation pull of Knoxville brought him back to his roots.
He is married to Laura, who is a faculty member with the University of Tennessee Department of Finance. They enjoy playing co-ed recreational-league soccer, traveling, and experimenting with new cooking recipes.
