OUR STORY

From the young age of 4, Marlie’s love for dance had the power to bring people together. Her natural joy for the art created a magnetic overflow that enchanted anyone who watched her perform.

Marlie lived her life the same way. Her kind heart and welcoming smile gave anyone in her presence a sense of belonging and purpose. She brought out the best in others by living her life with open arms.

When we lost our sweet Marlie in 2024, just shy of her sophomore year of high school, we knew we wanted to carry on her legacy by inviting others to LIVE LIKE MARLIE.

For us, this means supporting efforts that embody Marlie’s cherished qualities – kindness, love, helpfulness, inclusion, respect, care, and dedication – while remaining loyal to the world of dance and performing arts, which played such a pivotal role in her life.

By infusing Marlie’s legacy into each of our endeavors, we know her impact will reach beyond her short time on this earth.
