Known for her organizational skills and ability to ensure colleagues have what they need to succeed, she sees her work not as “easy” but as meaningful – a chance to support the team’s larger goals with precision and care.

Outside of the office, Edna is energized by learning and creating. Weekends often find her at her sewing machine, exploring small museums, or experimenting in the kitchen.

Edna approaches both life and work with authenticity and courage. She embraces opportunities to learn, create, and help others – never settling when she can push herself, and those around her, toward something greater. This perspective fuels her dedication to supporting The Marston Group team, her passion for crafting and giving back, and her joy in exploring new ideas. For Edna, excellence is found in leaning into her unique strengths and inspiring others to do the same.
