I worked with Marlee for 5 years. She has an excellent attention to detail and has a strong eye for spotting great talent. She’s built more than one operation here from the ground up. I’m very thankful for the years we worked together and the lasting impact she made on our company.
I’ve had the pleasure of working with Marlee on numerous occasions. She has been such a joy to work with and is extremely thoughtful, efficient, trend-savvy, and reliable. Simply put, her editorial strategy and vision is unmatched. As a publicist this is the type of relationship you dream about.
Marlee is an analytic and forward-thinking content creator. I worked with Marlee on a monthly content plan for AskMen.com with our leading spokesperson. All of the articles we generated performed outstandingly from a web traffic and social and engagement perspective.
Marlee makes the freelance collaboration process between a writer and editor inspiring. It’s that simple. Throughout my experiences reporting to her as a freelance writer for AskMen.com, she was constantly approachable, enthusiastic and motivating. She truly paid attention to any and all inquires. She guided me as if a team member. And she made me challenge my own level of talent and reach a new plateau every draft. Her attention to detail is beyond incredible. Marlee is a testament to what every editor should encompass when working with freelance writers.
I highly recommend Marlee as both a colleague and manager. When I started at The List as a freelance writer, Marlee (as editor) provided clarity surrounding the style and voice of the publication while offering constructive feedback. Not only did she ask questions, but she actually listened — something not always seen in editors. I always felt comfortable asking her questions, soliciting feedback, and sharing my own thoughts, even when they didn’t match hers. Marlee is a knowledgeable, compassionate, and collaborative leader on top of being a skillful editor. I hope to have the opportunity to work with her again in the future.
Marlee is, without question, one of best, most efficient, and timely editors I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with. As my go-to editor at AskMen.com (where I contribute as a freelance writer), she makes sure all articles are sent out completely polished and on-point. Working with her was a truly collaborative effort, and in an extraordinarily short amount of time her and I became a well-oiled machine. If ever there were an explanation needed, Marlee would be on the phone to ensure every detail about a story, gallery, etc. was crystal clear. This is just one of many examples why Marlee is a rarity in the industry. And I could go on (and on).
Working under Marlee has been an awesome experience and a privilege. On my very first project with her, she helped me every step of the way to make a powerful, engaging article. As a mentor, she always takes the time to offer guidance and she brings the positive energy that makes you want to work harder and bring your best everyday.
Marlee is a self-starter and team player, an asset to any organization for which she works. She brings emotional intelligence and maturity to her work environment and is appreciated by all with whom she works.
