An established and growing, NYC-based creative agency engaged me to tweak administrative processes, perform special projects, and manage hiring and general human resources during a growth period.

A growing children’s golf program hired me to help productize and scale their curriculum and accessory materials.
“Mari is a taskmaster with EQ. Her ability to listen and advise were perfectly balanced with her performance of tasks not in my wheelhouse. She knew exactly what was needed to scale my ideas and executed on them in ways that I simply wouldn’t have seen without her. She was fully invested in my success and I’m forever grateful for what she has given my business.“
-Kate Tempesta, Founder
An expanding jewelry brand engaged me to expand their wholesale division, streamline their back office operations, and generating more traffic to the retail website.
“Mari is the firm and friendly partner I needed to get me to act on my dreams, and focus on the most important details in the moment.”
-Rebecca Dolber, Founder, Owner R.E.D. Jewelry Collection
A tourism startup hired me to create and implement a system for prioritizing projects, selecting & implementing a CRM, streamlining accounting functions, and formalizing the process for engaging 1099 contract workers.
“Mari is what every start-up company needs. Most entrepreneurs focus on their creativity and what things will look like when they are successful and the world loves everything they do! But none of that happens without the nitty gritty, not so fun, but critically important foundational stuff that Mari delivers brilliantly in a no BS manner. It's ok to focus on the fun stuff but you'd better have a Mari to handle the stuff that makes a business a business and not just a dream!”
-Mike Riordan, Founder
