John Saint Denis

With a passion for the worlds of political action and design, John was greatly influenced by his Italian mother's Amalfi Coast roots and his French father's dedication to the built environment. John travelled extensively in France and Italy, studying not only the languages but also the politics, art, design and architecture of the regions. Raised in Connecticut, John spent 16 years at French-speaking Catholic schools. He lived in Paris for a year during high school and in Lyon for a year during college while he studied Communications and Linguistic Psychology.  He recently studied art history in Florence at the Uffizi.  He worked for a national marketing firm throughout the 90's and in the retail and design world for the last ten years.  He's been involved in political advocacy all of his life.  He has partnered with many of his long time business associates to form The Advisorie Group.
