We’d like to welcome a new member to the Flame Bearers team! Welcome, Marissa!

Believing in sports and that it connects us all, Marissa Potter has dedicated her life to sportsmanship and teamwork. She’s passionate about working in a team with people who, like her, are prompt and active in achieving any set objectives. With that in mind, she’s committed to helping and growing mission-driven companies with inclusion, sports, and health & wellness at their forefront.


She’s a sucker for soccer. From playing on the field, coaching behind touchlines and in dressing rooms, and cheering from the crowd, she has experienced firsthand the beauty and joy of sports. And as she wholeheartedly stated, it is her wish to use all that she has learned to empower women and girls all over the world.
With over seven years in community engagement and brand building in the sports industry and partnerships with several Boston-based nonprofits, she has learned, developed, and improved critical skill sets that distinguish her, including supervision & team building. 


She graduated from Hobart and William Smith Colleges with a BA in Sociology and Boston University’s Questrom School of Business with an MBA in Business Administration & Management, General.

When asked why Flame Bearers, Marissa said, “I love that Flame Bearers provides a platform for women Olympian and Paralympians to share their story and issues that are important to them. Every episode is carefully curated to fit the athlete and I enjoy hearing about each of their unique journeys and then cheering them on in their future matches! I am elated to join this incredible storytelling platform and empower women and girls through sports!”
