When Marlies White lost her brother-in-law to illness, she found herself motivated into proactive involvement in the health and wellness industry. With the help of her husband (a medical doctor familiar with nutritional production) and the strong work ethic her parents instilled in her at a young age, she went on to co-found SomaLife. Now celebrating six years as president of SomaLife, a company devoted to providing top-quality natural health products, and 18 years overall experience in curative neutraceuticals, it is safe to say that Ms. White’s dedicated work has touched the lives of countless customers.
It is important, Ms. White believes, to keep moving forward when it comes to realizing career goals. Confident in the merits of keeping her eyes on the horizon, she started toward her personal goal by studying college coursework in business management and accounting. SomaLife was founded in 1998 and Ms. White takes considerable pride in the growth of her business from a vigorous home-based operation to the internationally renowned company it is today. Through SomaLife, she is pleased to provide to the public premium health and wellness products for anti-aging, sports management, brain health, and general wellness. The company also offers mineral cosmetics and pet wellness products, proving its versatility in a growing market.
Ms. White attributes her success to her commitment to every project and challenge she undertakes. She currently brings diligence to the wellness product arena through her skills in problem solving, financial management, and intermediary customer service. She finds her career experience to be consistently fulfilling because of the practical difference she is making in the lives of others and the work she does with a highly-skilled professional staff. Ms. White keeps pace with the constantly-shifting business market through her memberships with West K Women of Influence, Business Network International, and the local chamber of commerce. Moving forward, she intends to continue to expand SomaLife on an international level and leave behind a legacy of positive growth and achievement.
