telling your brand’s story through social media
Explore what I offer
Let’s make your life easier
(and your brand shine).
Social media doesn’t have to feel like a full-time job — that’s where I come in.
As a freelance social media manager, I help small business owners save time, reduce stress, and connect authentically with their audience. The digital landscape changes fast, and most entrepreneurs simply don’t have the hours (or desire) to keep up with every trend. I’ll handle the strategy, planning, and posting so you can focus on doing what you do best — running your business.
With a degree in Psychology and Visual Arts from Duke University, I blend creative storytelling with an understanding of human behavior to help brands stand out in a way that feels genuine, engaging, and aligned with their mission.
If you’ve been meaning to “get more consistent on social,” I can help you finally make it happen — in a way that feels easy, cohesive, and true to your brand.
Let’s build something that works for you — not against your schedule.
Social media audit
Book a social media audit to receive a thorough lookover of your current social media presence. This can be done as a standalone service—perfect for a small business looking for help with social media strategy!—or as part of an ongoing social media consulting program.

Who i am
Hi, I’m Marilyn!
I’ve loved creating ever since I was little, a skill that my grandparents—-both entrepreneurs in marketing and communications—-encouraged. MareBear Media is an homage to their influence, and their nickname for me as a child.
My passion is digital storytelling—-making social media authentic and interesting. I love to help small businesses who may not be able to afford a full time social media manager; and freelancing allows me to focus my energy on my favorite aspects of marketing—-creating captivating social media content.
Although I can help businesses in any industry, I specialize in brands that are part of the health and wellness industry. I’ve spent over 20 years experience, including:
-Sports Modelling
-Competitive Fencing (NCAA athlete)
-Running (including 5 marathons and 50 half marathons)
-Group Fitness Instruction (barre and indoor cycling)
-Boutique Fitness Studio Management (including marketing and social media)
-Athleisure Retail Sales
-Digital Marketing for a Chinese Medicine College
-Social Media Management for a Medical Seminar Company
These experiences give me a unique ability to communicate passion, trust, and expertise across visual and written content.
