Dr. Marshall is the Founding President and President Emerita of the internationally recognized Illinois Mathematics and Science Academy (IMSA), the first three-year public residential secondary institution for students academically talented in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) in the U.S. She was the Founding President of the National Consortium of Secondary STEM Schools (NCSS) and President of the Association of Supervision and Curriculum Development (ASCD) one of the world’s largest professional educational associations. She has held multiple leadership roles in K-12 and higher education and served on several philanthropic and corporate boards. She continues to write, speak and serve as an advisor to educational and corporate leaders and leadership teams, who seek to manifest the “new story” of leadership and learning within their organizations. Her award-winning book The Power to Transform: Leadership that Brings Learning and Schooling to Life was recognized as groundbreaking in its translation and application of living system principles within the natural world to the transformation of learning and schooling.

“Although recognized and respected in my field as a leader, author and speaker, my previous website was lackluster and my social media presence was virtually non-existent. It was quite clear I needed to become visible if I wanted my voice and work to be heard, seen and manifested. The challenge was finding a company that could authentically understand the distinctive nature and narrative of my work, enter it with fidelity and understanding and then wisely and beautifully manifest it through images and language that were resonant.

Enter My Sister Fred.

From our first conversation I knew they embodied what I needed—a thoughtful, personalized and strategic process that included interviews with my peers and collaborators. With insights gathered during this critical process they were able to understand the often complex narrative I was seeking to convey, both on the website they designed and their ongoing work on social media. I could not be more pleased with the results of our collaborative partnership and the dynamic look and feel of my website and social media.”
