MCP | Project Advisor

Maria Fenn

Maria is a proven leader, trainer, and communicator. Her expertise is training on technical and high-level topics. Maria leads team members through improving business processes and event coordination.

In her own words, “Learning, serving, and managing are my priorities. In my journey, the most important thing I have learned is that we can never stop learning. The moment we stop learning is the moment we begin to inhibit our opportunities.” Whether in the office or out, you’re likely to find her beautiful dog (and Advisicon’s unofficial mascot), Ashoka, by her side.
