A licensed Realtor since 1979, Marianne has been among the top 5 Real Estate agents in Squamish since 1990. Marianne is the #1 Realtor in dollar volume and units sold at Royal LePage Black Tusk Realty and top ten in British Columbia for Royal LePage in 2006.

In 1962 her family (Mortensen) moved to Squamish. Marianne grew up enjoying all the outdoor activities that the Sea to Sky Corridor had to offer (skiing, swimming, biking and hiking). Upon graduation, Marianne went on to the University of British Columbia where she received her B.Sc. in Psychology. In 1979 she continued her education and received her Real Estate License. Marianne tackled markets around the Lower Mainland including Vancouver, Mission and Steveston. Eventually ending up in Whistler, the crash of 1980/81 motivated Marianne to find an alternate career and ended up working for Emergency Health Services as an ambulance attendant.

In 1984 Marianne and her husband Van moved from Whistler back to Squamish. The affordable, safe, healthy community in which Marianne grew up was where they wanted to raise their 3 children. Their children have enjoyed excellent schooling and are all avid soccer players, mountain bikers and snowboarders.

Realizing that Real Estate was what Marianne loved to do, in 1987 Marianne was back in business and joined Black Tusk Realty, now Royal LePage BTR.

Marianne knows the Sea to Sky marketplace and is proud to call it home. As she often says “Squamish sells itself, I just have to introduce you to it ”.

Marianne believes the health of a community requires input and involvement from its residents and plays an active role in her community:

• Past member of the SCC 2010 Olympic Bid Task Force.
• Vice President of the Squamish Community Foundation.
• Chair of the Fund Development & Marketing committee for SCF.
• Past Chair of the Howe Sound Secondary Grad Committee.
• Member of the Squamish Chamber of Commerce.
• Enthusiastic volunteer for the annual Test of Metal Mountain Bike Festival.

Marianne's team consists of her very capable assistant, Alyssa Wilson and rock'n Dean Richards (OnTrack Media) in charge of web design and maintenance.
