Marni is driven to transform complex and neglected landscapes into environmentally thriving social spaces for every day. She has experience designing and managing projects of all scales, offering a focus on human experience of ecological systems in urbanized conditions. Diving deep into each site's condition, context, and community, she uncovers the possibilities of how our landscapes can both work hard and spark curiosity. For over a decade at OLIN, Marni has managed complex projects including Hunts Point Lifelines, which was awarded $20 million in federal funds in the Rebuild by Design Competition, and the Comprehensive Infrastructure Master Plan for Caño Martín Peña communities. Recent work includes ResilienCity Park in Hoboken, NJ and Sojourner Truth State Park Framework Plan and Phase 1 Waterfront—two projects aimed at connecting people with unique ecosystems, bolstering community resilience in the face of climate change, and contributing to the social and ecological vibrancy of cities and neighborhoods.
