ABOUT ME
I've spent my professional career working as a Sales Operations leader and Project Manager in both start-up and established high technology companies. During this time I developed processes to support rapidly expanding global teams, steering major productivity tool projects which led to highly efficient operational improvements. I was a respected and trusted resource, handling sensitive and confidential information for the executive leadership team, at one time supporting the company’s CEO and Chairman of the Board.
I received my BS degree in Business Management from Bentley University in Waltham, MA and my MBA in Marketing from Golden Gate University in San Francisco, CA. My education and work experience have provided me with a strong skill set for managing budgets and projects with great attention to detail.

TESTIMONIALS
“I’m pleased to say that I was The Organization Maven’s first customer. As an executive leader with her previous employer and having known Mary for many years, I knew she would have the skill set and integrity to help manage my personal business. The streamlined processes she’s implemented and managed have greatly freed up my time – I’ve never felt so organized!”
Nancy S.
Two remodels and 20+ years later all I had managed to do was throw the receipts, credit card statements and paperwork into a very large box. The task of organizing this mess as I was preparing to sell my home was daunting and would take me weeks to complete and only if I could maintain my sanity through the process.
I handed everything off to Mary with little input or direction. Miraculously, in a very short period of time she returned to me a very complete, concise, detailed and accurate report with project/category/expense/date of all my expenditures.
She is not an organizational maven she is an organizational miracle worker!
