Strategic People Partner | 25+ Years HR Expertise | Certified Coach | Champion of Teams and Leaders Disruptor
BACKGROUND
Hi, I’m Marni. With over 25 years of Human Resources experience—and as an Internationally Accredited Professional Certified Coach (PCC) and Certified Human Resources Professional (CHRP)—I bring more than just strategy to the table. I bring lived experience personally and professionally, grounded insight, and an unwavering commitment to people and performance.
I’ve supported organizations through the good, the bad, and the unpredictable. From fast-paced restructures and high-stakes leadership transitions to building strong, high-performing teams, I’ve worked side-by-side with senior leaders and business units to help navigate complexity with confidence. I understand the pressures of running a team in demanding times—and I know what it takes to support, empower, and sustain those teams through it.
APPROACH
My strength lies in showing up as a thought partner: not above or ahead, but right beside you and your team. Whether it’s aligning HR strategy to business objectives, coaching leaders to lead with purpose, or helping teams rediscover their “why,” my approach is both practical and personal. I don’t believe in one-size-fits-all; I believe in meeting people where they are and guiding them to where they want to go—with clarity, care, and accountability.
As a coach, I help individuals and high performers unlock their potential and lead with authenticity. We focus on building awareness, sharpening leadership presence, and moving through change with resilience—so they can show up for themselves, their teams, and their future in the most powerful way.
I believe leadership is a choice, not a title—and with the right support, anyone can lead with clarity, confidence, and heart. I’ve been in the trenches. I’ve walked alongside teams under pressure. And I’m here to help you and your organization write the next chapter—intentionally, courageously, and with purpose.

MOST GRATEFUL FOR
Gratitude has become my foundation. As a breast cancer survivor, I’ve learned to embrace life with a deeper sense of purpose. I’m a proud mom to two insightful adult children who constantly challenge me to see the world with fresh eyes, and a joyful new grandparent to a beautiful baby girl who lights up my world. My husband keeps me grounded, and my loyal dog Jaxx reminds me daily that unconditional love exists.
These life experiences don’t just define who I am—they shape how I show up as a coach. I work with clients in helping them rediscover their strengths, align with their values, and step into the next chapter with confidence and clarity.
PROUDEST ACCOMPLISHMENT
I became a coach in 2013, and over the past decade, I’ve blended my real-life experiences—as both a human (with all the ups and downs) and a former corporate warrior—into a coaching style that’s grounded, practical, and deeply personal.
This role fits me like a favorite pair of sweatpants: comfortable, authentic, and completely aligned with who I am.
I’m committed to growing continuously as a coach, so I can walk alongside my clients as they navigate life’s twists, turns, and turning points. Whether it’s redefining success, rediscovering purpose, or building resilience, I’m here to support the journey forward.
