A native of Washington State, Marianne is a comic with a unique take on day-to-day life. Raised in the backwoods of Washington, she moved to Seattle when she was 17, causing a drastic, but good change of perspective that gives her a wide range of appeal to audiences of any sex, race or background. Because of the strange and sometimes difficult circumstances, she has encountered in her life, this single mother of two has honed her defense mechanisms by finding the humor in any given situation. While Marianne’s original life-goal of becoming a sex therapist did not pan out, she continues to entertain audiences in a variety of different venues across the country. She pushes the envelope with her smart, relatable brand of comedy and proves that strong women can carry a full set of baggage without breaking a sweat.
