NEW MANAGEMENT

I am beyond excited to announce my partnership with Marz in managing the What’s Poppin’ Penny Podcast! From the moment we connected, I was inspired by their expertise, passion, and commitment to amplifying voices that make a real difference.

Marz is a podcast producer, PR strategist, and audio engineer with over a decade of experience in podcasting, media, and communications. As the Founder of Media By Marz and Co-Founder/CEO of Certified Crucial, they specialize in podcast monetization, sustainable merch solutions, and media strategy - helping creators turn passion into profit.

With a background in radio with iHeartRadio, NCAA broadcasting, and earned media strategy, Marz has booked thousands of podcast features and built high performing teams from the ground up. Their expertise in storytelling, production, and audience growth makes them the perfect partner to help expand What’s Poppin’ Penny and its mission to support Social-Emotional Learning (SEL), storytime, and enriching content for kids, children, and families.

What’s Poppin’ Penny is more than a podcast - it’s a movement designed to nurture emotional intelligence, spark imagination, and foster deeper connections between kids and their families. With Marz on board, I know we’re going to take it to the next level and reach even more children and families. Be sure to follow and subscribe to be part of this journey!
