“I was introduced to Marissa as a mentor when my company was a finalist in the Spring Women-Led Impact Investor Challenge. She has a wealth of knowledge in investor positioning and corporate communications, and supported our fundraising plans at Better Basics. She was not only knowledgeable, she offered practical advice and solutions to getting our brand out there. Marissa was instrumental in helping me land my pitch and prepare for investor meetings. She offered a sounding board to work through some of my biggest business (and personal) challenges. Her sustainable values and high integrity inspired me to keep fighting to create a business that supports profit, planet and people.”
