Marie received her BS degree from the University of Kansas. She worked as a property adjuster and then managed local vendors for a major insurance carrier for 16 years. She was in charge of onboarding or removing restoration companies from the program if they weren’t servicing the customers properly. She received her water certification training from the Institute of Inspection Cleaning Restoration Certification (IICRC), which is the same certification field technicians require in order to dry out properties. While working with the vendors and managing her team, she not only handled and resolved customer complaints, but she was able to identify how a restoration company should be run. She started Smart Restoration with one of the best restoration directors in the industry who she had known for many years. With their combined strengths and knowledge, Smart Restoration is able to provide the level of service, expertise and professionalism that customers should expect.
