Meet the HR Team – Denise Garman

Denise Garman, Senior HR Consultant, is one of our newest team members, joining Hubric Resources in April 2023.   She has over 25 years of HR experience and specializes in assisting clients with leadership training and coaching, employee relations, HR audits, employee handbooks, and policy/procedure review and development.  Denise completed her BSBA with an HR concentration from Shippensburg University and has her MBA from Temple University. Denise is also certified as a Senior Professional in HR (SPHR) through the HR Certification Institute (HRCI). She started her undergraduate education as an Accounting major but transitioned to HR upon realizing that she enjoyed the people aspect of work rather than the numbers. Denise describes herself as “always having a passion for being a leader and growing and developing the leadership and HR skills in others.”  

On a personal note, Denise enjoys taking group fitness classes and practicing yoga.  Having been a trumpet player from fifth grade through college, she enjoys attending numerous school marching band events and band concerts for her son, Evan, and daughter, Haley. She even finds time to volunteer with the Cedar Crest Music Aides, the school’s band booster organization.

Denise also enjoys traveling as much as she can. Two of her favorite trips were to Hawaii for her honeymoon with her husband, Brian, and an Alaskan cruise with her family several years ago. This accomplished traveler has visited 37 states with a goal to visit all 50!

When not creating “aha” moments for her HR clients, Denise enjoys a glass of good red wine, trying new restaurants with her husband, and enjoying time with her family and friends.  It is important to her to always find ways to do and be better while also finding the fun and humor in life. After all, her favorite quote from Maya Angelo is “Do the best you can until you know better. When you know better, do better.”
