Renee was born and raised in Hamilton and now makes her home in Edgewater Park. She spent 20 years as a 911 dispatcher for the Trenton Police Department until she recently took early retirement to begin her own business venture. Working for so long as a police dispatcher, she has excellent skills in listening to people, understanding their needs, and executing a plan to meet those needs. She also spent time volunteering with the Trenton Animal Shelter by handling dogs at adoption events and by fostering some tough adoption cases. She currently lives with her rescue Mastiff/Pit Dutchess, who spent the first half of her life in an abusive situation and is now thriving in Renee's care.
