Mary McLennan

Community Director

Mary McLennan began her career with the Chicago Cubs baseball team, splitting her time between public relations and social media. She left the sports world behind to work for IBM for 7 years, which led to her move to South Austin. She received her 200-hour yoga teacher training certification from Free People Movement in August of 2023.

Mary is passionate about animal welfare and has fostered 10 dogs over the years from Austin Animal Center, Austin Pets Alive, Austin Bulldog Rescue, and New Hope Animal Rescue. She is a proud dog mom to her rescue pup, Evey.

Mary feels her true mission in life is sustainability, and she regularly volunteers with the Slow Fashion Festival, GOOD group ATX, Central Texas Fashion Coalition, and she is a Zero Waste Block Leader for the City of Austin. If you're ever looking to recycle or mindfully rehome items, Mary would love to be your go-to person. In her spare time, she is learning to sew and upcycle clothes. She loves all things astrology, tarot, and Golden Girls.
