Previous careers were in intangible sales (credit bureau, Citizens Bank), retail (Macy, Ethan Allen, Verizon), and wholesale sales ( Cressy Memorial) serving a variety of business and consumer needs.
MaryAnne is passionate about inspiring good choices for all but especially for young people which is why Healthy Visions is the perfect fit. The mission to affirm the value of each person while encouraging great decision-making skills is paramount to one’s happiness. As a board member, her energies are directed toward fund-raising and spreading the good news about the best, most effective non-profit that very few people know about!
