About Dee Marrs

Currently the Vice President of Human Resources at CelLink Corporation, Dee has built a career grounded in high-performance culture, operational alignment, and compassionate leadership.

Her connection to the veteran community is deeply personal: her son and daughter-in-law are active duty physicians in the Army, working at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.

She is proud to support veteran-focused programs that foster trust, healing, and renewed purpose through the powerful bond between humans and horses.
