Since 2022, Marlee has worked with the Fair Housing Council of Oregon as an Education and Outreach Coordinator, and for the past three years, has directed FHCO’s historical bus tour, “Fasten Your Seatbelts, It’s Been a Bumpy Ride: A Bus Tour of Portland’s Hidden Discriminatory History.” They hold a Bachelor of Social Work degree from George Fox University and previously worked with adults experiencing homelessness in Washington County.
