Head of Development
Mariel Smith is originally from Baltimore and grew up visiting museums in Maryland and Washington, DC. Those early experiences gave her the strong belief that museums and historic sites are perfect places to learn, explore, and have fun. She has a B.A. in English literature from the University of Maryland and an M.A. in museum studies from New York University. Committed to sharing her passion for informal hands-on education, Mariel has worked in fundraising and museum education in Washington, DC and New York City, as well as abroad in London, England. She is proud to contribute her skills and interests to the Live It Learn It team. Outside of work Mariel loves to knit, bake cookies, and spend time with her husband and two children.
