Marius Dereskevicius

Marius began his career in the software industry as part of Foundant’s internship program and quickly rose through the ranks to become a go-to team member for complex projects. Marius's client-centric personality traits made for a natural client service representative. This, reinforced by his clients’ excitement, cultivated a passion for helping others in the philanthropic sector. After obtaining his Bachelor of Science in Business at Montana State University, Marius worked closely with leadership to develop the Client Success Associate role, which became an integral part of Client Services at Foundant. In 2019, he leveled up in client support once again, becoming a Client Success Manager in areas of training, teaching, best practices, strategic conversations, and much more. Through serving clients with different funding objectives, he next developed expertise in small family foundations, faith-based foundations, United Way organizations, and various public agencies. Marius and his partner reside in Vancouver, Washington, with their dogs Duke and Oliver, exploring the outdoors in search of Sasquatch. Areas of expertise: data collection best practices, reporting, merge templates, and grant and scholarship best practices.
