Mary Morano founded Marivine with a mission to offer specialized marketing services that drive meaningful growth. While Mary’s deep passion lies in the maritime and sustainability sectors, she always welcomes businesses from any industry that values purpose and impact. With strong roots on Martha’s Vineyard and Tortola, Mary’s lifelong connection to the ocean influences both her personal and professional journey. Mary graduated cum laude in 2021 with a B.S. in Marketing from the College of Charleston, where she was a Schottland Scholar, and team captain of the Division I sailing team. 

Mary’s marketing career spans both B2C and B2B sectors, with experience at leading agencies such as Digitas North America, where she worked with brands like iRobot and HEYDUDE Shoes, and Prosek Partners, where she supported financial services clients, primarily in private equity. Through her diverse background experience, Mary discovered her passion for supporting businesses in sectors that align with her personal values.

After spending several years in New York, Mary returned to Martha’s Vineyard, where she saw an opportunity to help small businesses thrive through tailored marketing strategies. Through Marivine, she partners with businesses of all sizes, creating compelling narratives and driving results. Big or small, Marivine approaches every project with the same care, creativity, and attention to detail.

Outside of work, Mary is a lifelong adventurer. She’s an avid runner, sailor, surfer, traveler, knitter, and oyster shucker. With a deep appreciation for wooden boats and the art of varnishing, she embodies the maritime spirit she helps brands capture. A champion of mindfulness, Mary practices yoga, grows organic food, and is always seeking new challenges—kiteboarding is her latest pursuit.
