Since graduating from North Miami Beach High in 1995, she enrolled at Miami-Dade Community college and joined the University of Miami "Band of the Hour" for three years, performing first in the color guard and then marching saxophone. In regards to work experiences, she has worked a variety of jobs ranging from retail, teaching, nightclub promotions, and sales.

Marie is currently a kick-ass massage therapist who is nationally and state board certified L.M.T #MA42036 Nat'L Certified #404226-00 in a variety of techniques.
