About Marissa Belske Ivo

My purpose is to create positive impact in the lives of every single person I interact with. Through teaming, friendship, philanthropy and leadership - it is my personal mission to bring people closer together and unite us all under the understanding that we are all human and that every voice deserves to be heard.As the Americas Consulting External Communications Leader at EY, I am responsible for developing and executing our external messaging, media relations, organic social media, events, awards and executive communications strategies. I pride myself on being able to connect with all individuals regardless of background, and my passion is helping companies, people and teams find their story and tell it in a way that resonates across audiences. My fun fact is that I didn\'t always know communications was my path. I started my career as a stock broker with Fidelity Investments. This experience gave me a lifelong passion for investments and financial communications - and served me well in the six years I spent serving financial clients at FleishmanHillard. This taught me that a career is not always a straight path, its one that requires some curves. This early change has made me a risk taker, understanding that education is lifelong and doesn\'t have an end date. I have lived in the DFW metroplex my entire life, and am deeply connected to the Dallas community. I attended Southern Methodist University in Dallas and am a planning committee member of the wonderful 5050 Women On Boards Dallas Chapter. Most importantly, I am the mother to a seven year old and a three year old who push me every day to be more than I could have ever imagined.
