Marni Kirby

Hi, I’m Marni . I’m married to my high school sweetheart, and we have four wonderful kids, including a set of twins who keep life extra exciting. We share our home with three lovable dogs who think they’re in charge. ( and, they kind of are)

I work in early intervention, helping young children reach important developmental milestones. Watching them grow and build confidence is priceless.

When I’m not working, I’m usually crafting or transforming furniture with a paintbrush in hand. Being in my garage painting something, is definitely my happy place.

And, I try my best to live by the idea that, “People don’t remember what you say, but they remember how you made them feel.” For me, spreading kindness every day is just as important as any project or goal. A little kindness can brighten anyone’s day.
