After living in North Africa and Asia for many years, Marcia moved to Ann Arbor in 1984. Since then she has raised her two children, earned an M.A. in South Asian Studies from the University of Michigan, and enjoyed the fantastic cultural opportunities that Ann Arbor offers. Marcia began her real estate career in 1989, and in 2005 she received her broker’s license and established Lotus Realty. She loves to help people find the perfect home, whether it's a first home, a home to meet the needs of a growing or changing family, or a relocation.

Marcia is also the Artistic Director and founder of Sadhana Dance Theater, where she performs and teaches Bharatanatyam, the classical dance style from South India. She contributes to her community as a longstanding volunteer with the University Musical Society and the Amma Center of Michigan. Through the Amma Center she helps to provide meals to the homeless in Ann Arbor, supports humanitarian work in India, and teaches IAM meditation courses.
