In her free time, she loves spending time with her loving husband, four beautiful children, her beloved Boxer, two adorable cats and 16 precious chickens that provide fresh eggs. If she is not at a sporting event cheering on her kids, she is likely home cooking, reading a book or working out at the gym. Dr. Marrinson loves to garden in the summer and enjoys her home grown tomatoes, blue berries and fresh herbs. She is a HUGE Georgia Bulldog Fan and loves her Saturdays watching football in the fall.
