"I can't say enough about the experience I've had with Marlene and Becky at RiseUp. They've increased our capacity through their thoughtfulness, diligence, and follow-through.  We are a better organization, providing higher quality service to our constituents because of their good work.

David Bennett

Camp Longhorn Director

“Dr. Marlene Dixon has been no less than an iconic influence personally and community-wide. She is a friend, parent, spouse, educator, coach, motivator, and accountability partner who strives every day to find the best in everyone and every situation. Paralleling relatable life lessons as she consults is impressive, to say the least.  She has an innate ability to bring out the good in everyone she works with by focusing on the pride they see in themselves through hard work and a don’t-give-up attitude.”  

Yanika Daniels

"Through basketball, Coach Geyer has become a very important figure in my life. She consistently supported my ambitions on and off the court. For years after I graduated, she filled gaps that were key to my confidence in reaching my goals early in adulthood. Knowing I had Coach Geyer's support, knowing she was rooting for me, has grounded me and helped me keep reaching for my goals.”
