Marisa Rodgers is the Director of Marketing at Visit Macon. She is a creative marketing professional with over 20 years of experience in communications, public relations and marketing. She began her career in retail helping grow a small business organization into a national brand and then moving to serve as Creative Director for the Sam’s Club division of Walmart for several years. Upon leaving she moved on to work for the agency side touching all industries from medical, municipalities, state & federal branches, retail and tourism, while owning and managing two regional magazines and handling all print media for Miss America. In 2018, she moved to tourism fulltime in Hot Springs, Arkansas which is Arkansas’ leading tourism destination. This led her to the opportunity in Macon, Georgia. Leaving arguably the oldest National Park in America to join Middle Georgia in what will be the Newest National Park and the first in Georgia, Marisa is now a proud resident of Macon and thrilled to promote all of the music heritage, film, architecture and history that the city ‘where soul lives’ has to offer.
