Marcia served on the Kripalu Board during which she co-chaired the Development Committee. While Marcia sits on several nonprofit boards, it is Kripalu’s ability to open hearts and transform lives that has brought her back to the fold.

Marcia holds a law degree from Hofstra University. After practicing general and municipal law for several years, she became Director of Public Policy at the Mental Health Association of Nassau County, Inc., until she retired. She intends to continue promoting the mental-health benefits of yoga.

Marcia has two grown children and four beautiful grandchildren. She lives with her husband, Jonathan, and they divide their time between White Plains, New York, and Richmond, Massachusetts. She hopes to strengthen Kripalu’s community relations using her connections within Berkshire County.
