After beginning her career in retail – first, in sales and later, as a buyer – Mary moved to New York in 2003 and joined a boutique private equity firm on Wall Street as the assistant to the president. She discovered a love of and aptitude for industry research. Mary loves the challenge of learning new industries and seeing how her contributions make a difference to the team. Another of her passions is conservation. Her parents taught her the importance of protecting the land, and she still volunteers her time to help keep her local state parks clean.
Mary graduated from Old Dominion University with a degree in psychology.
Mary looks the part of a native New Yorker. She’s got earbuds in during her long subway commute to and from work and loves listening to podcasts. Her evenings are often dedicated to playing backgammon with friends.
