Marlow FIVE-0:
Experience. Creativity. Commitment.
I grew up between two cities: a minority in a liberal neighborhood in St. Louis and an outsider in a conservative, rural town in northeastern Indiana. Five core values drive my passion for local, sustainable organizations: candor, community, diversity, economic justice, and integrity.
I received a Bachelor of Science in Business from Indiana University – one of the nation’s top 10 business programs. With a minor in water polo, I swam to Seattle to pursue an independent career.
My background includes sales & marketing for a privately-owned hotel; business development for two high tech startup (online file sharing and search indexing); and sponsorship development and marketing for the nation’s largest bike club, Cascade Bicycle Club — working with brands including Clif Bar, Entercom, Group Health, REI, and Whole Foods.
