MaryEllen Marshall
Concierge

Hi, I’m MaryEllen Marshall the Concierge. You can find me at the front desk handing out keys, answering questions, and helping people connect at WindChime.

I’ve been living in Marin since 2008. Previously I worked in Enrollment Services at College of Marin and have volunteered with WildCare in San Rafael. I love living in Marin and can often be found enjoying live music in Fairfax or exploring the hidden corners of West Marin.

I have lived and traveled all over the USA. I started out in Connecticut, where I grew up and went to school. Then I moved to Dallas, TX, where I was a high school science teacher for a few years before relocating to California. I lived in San Francisco and had fun working at The Exploratorium. I was also The Bug Lady, bringing live insects to Bay Area classrooms for hands on demonstrations on the wonders of species diversity, and spent some time working in veterinary clinics around the city. Here at WindChime, I make sure our community birds get lots of care and attention.

In my spare time I like to crochet, study astrology, and snuggle with my cats. I find it very rewarding to be part of the WindChime community.

Beyond the call of duty, they have helped me with care challenges I have had at home. If and when the time comes when my wife needs care I can no longer provide at…
