I have known Marlene for the last 30 years. I have volunteered with Marlene on several occasions, but most of all, we have journeyed together through life. Marlene is the most generous person I know, always with the intent to ease a persons concerns. Marlene is amazing in her profession, always giving attention to detail. She goes over and above as she services excellence to each customer. She is an asset to any team as she exhibits professional teaching skills, helping those she collaborates with to get any job done!

Marlene is a wonderful co-worker. She is never one to accept an answer at face value and always goes beyond the first assignment she has been given to find more ways to embellish, expand and create awareness for a brand. She is constantly teaching herself more techniques, more ways to exploit new technologies and to create awareness for our products with consumers always going beyond the initial assignment to find exciting new opportunities online. She would take a simple task and then explode with new ideas, new ways to engage our customers and always seemed delighted with her new discoveries. She's cheerful, smart, funny and a joy to work. She's truly a collaborative team member. Anyone will be lucky to work with her!
