Your Coach

As a former HR Executive and Chief Diversity Officer, Marian’s career spans across multiple industries including Insurance, Finance, Healthcare, Publishing, Market Research, Higher Education and Sports and Entertainment.

Her experience and passion for developing inclusive leaders and collaborative teams has inspired her coaching techniques to help individuals and teams foster a deeper understanding of themselves and respect for the expansive identities and perspectives of others. 

Marian holds an M.S. in Executive Coaching & Organizational Consulting from NYU, is a Gallup Certified Strengths Coach, and a Member of ICF. 

My personal experience as a Black woman navigating the corporate workspace as “one of few” and often times “the only”, led to my own journey to overcoming imposter syndrome and finding confidence in my unique strengths.

As a result, I have a deep understanding of the power and importance of representation and the value in having a safe and supportive coach to help you discover your natural talents and build confidence with authenticity. As your coach, I can offer a unique perspective and appreciation for the challenges that folks with intersecting identities experience.
