MARDA MANAGEMENT LEADERSHIP

MARLA COFFIN - PRESIDENT & CEO

Marla Coffin is the co-founder of MARDA Management Inc., where she successfully scaled the company into a leading local property management firm. Leveraging her entrepreneurial drive and strategic vision, she has since vertically integrated a suite of complementary businesses to strengthen and support the core operations of MARDA.

Through her journey, Marla uncovered her greatest strength: guiding other entrepreneurs through the complexities of growth. Drawing from real-world experience—both wins and missteps—she equips business owners with the tools, shortcuts, and strategic insight they need to scale smarter and lead stronger.

This passion led to the creation of The Growth Arena, a transformative venture that supports small and medium-sized business owners in scaling operations, developing leadership teams, and exiting the day-to-day without needing to sell. Marla’s mission is to empower founders to build sustainable, scalable businesses that thrive beyond their direct involvement.

Across all her ventures, Marla leads with a deep commitment to her core values, fostering cultures rooted in integrity, growth, and meaningful impact.

DALE COFFIN - CO-FOUNDER & CFO

Dale Coffin is the co-founder of MARDA Management Inc. and serves as the financial strategist behind the company’s success and expansion. In addition to leading the finance team at MARDA, Dale oversees the financial operations of the vertically integrated businesses within their growing family of companies.

With a sharp eye for opportunity and a disciplined approach to growth, Dale has played a key role in building and diversifying their real estate portfolio. His work focuses on long-term financial strategy, capital structuring, and targeted acquisitions that fuel sustainable expansion across industries.

Dale is deeply committed to building businesses that are not only financially sound but strategically aligned for growth and resilience. His leadership continues to shape the financial backbone of every venture under their umbrella.

Judy Kaake - Managing Partner

Judy Kaake is the Managing Partner of MARDA Management Inc., overseeing the day-to-day operations with strategic precision and steady leadership since 2023. Under her guidance, the company has continued to thrive, allowing the founders to step back from daily involvement with full confidence in the business’s direction.

Judy’s leadership has been instrumental in driving both cultural and financial growth. She has cultivated a stronger, more cohesive company culture while simultaneously accelerating revenue and operational performance. Her ability to lead with clarity, consistency, and a people-first mindset has made her a cornerstone of MARDA’s ongoing success.

With a deep understanding of both team dynamics and business performance, Judy ensures that MARDA not only sustains its legacy but continues to evolve with strength and purpose.
