The oldest of nine children, Mary learned early on many of the skills that have helped her succeed like determination, resiliency, and commitment to action.
She put herself through college, graduating with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Anthropology. After she was hired as an archaeological specialist for the California Office of Historic Preservation, where she modernized all of the State of California’s archeological sites.
Why Does Mary Value Sales Expertise So Much?
Early in her career, Mary was hired as the General Manager for a 28-person solar company in Sacramento, where she turned around the company in her first month. She became the top salesperson in the next position at another solar company, realizing that sales were exciting and lucrative.
After co-founding an event planning company in San Francisco, she increased annual sales from $100,000 per year to $2 million per year in two years. Then she started her own event planning company, Excellent Eventures. Running this company successfully for five years, she learned not only how to manage people in a high-stress environment, but how to motivate them to achieve top performance.

She obtained a Master’s degree in Organizational Development, which enabled her to immediately get hired to transform an agency in the US Dept. of Health and Human Services, taking them out of the lowest ranking in employee satisfaction and landing that division at the top.
She sharpened her teaching skills over 5 years as an adjunct professor at Sonoma State University, teaching Strategic Management to MBA students and seniors.
