PRAISE

Mari is an impressively talented coach and leader.

When I was considering a move from The New York Times to Meta, I sought Mari's perspective about the differences between working at a FAANG company and a media company, and how I might best position myself for success in a new environment. Based on her experiences at Google, Mari gave me actionable feedback that enabled me to hit the ground running and quickly become effective in a very different culture.

Further, Mari's experience as a woman with long-term leadership expertise gave me confidence that she might have insight about unique challenges I might face in the particular dynamic of Big Tech. I would recommend that other senior women considering their next professional move seek her counsel.

Mari brought an operations focus which drove clarity and productivity – and was tapped to lead two sensitive, business-critical projects at the highest levels of the company. Her ability to bring structure to chaos is phenomenal – and I truly hope we’ll work together again in the future.

Mari helped me as I took on a new role with more responsibility and our small team doubled in size. She was a great sounding board for ideas and concerns. Mari shared practical tips about project and meeting management as well as helped me think through bigger picture questions. It was such a relief to know I had Mari to chat with as I was managing this transition, and I know her advice helped our team a lot.
