After building and scaling research programs across universities, securing over $30 million in sponsored programs funding, and leading centers, graduate programs, and interdisciplinary teams, I recognized the need for experienced, strategic support to help organizations turn strong ideas into operational reality. With three decades of experience in research design, program evaluation, team leadership, and operations—and a consulting portfolio that spans both academic and industry settings—I saw how often teams needed just-in-time expertise to get initiatives off the ground. When I met my co-founder, our skill sets snapped into place—in creating Marro we now bring these skills to clients across sectors. We’re proud to offer the kind of support we always wished existed: light-touch, expert-driven, and designed to leave your team stronger than we found it.
