Marielle Sokolowski

Concierge service. Big-brand strategy. North Shore expertise.

Marielle Sokolowski brings 20 years of experience in brand strategy, performance marketing, and franchise development to North Shore real estate. She spent seven years as Corporate Development and Marketing Director at Pinot's Palette, scaling the franchise system from 2 to 200+ studios and contributing to $35M+ in system sales. During this time, she also owned and operated Pinot's Palette in The Glen studio. She then joined GSK, now Haleon, one of the world's largest consumer healthcare companies, where she rose to Director of Performance Marketing, managing creative effectiveness and personalization strategy across a $500M+ media portfolio and delivering measurable results for major retail partners including Walgreens, Amazon, and Walmart. When her corporate path required a move out of state, she earned her real estate license in 30 days and joined the Vittoria Logli Team at @properties Christie's International Real Estate, a partnership rooted in a friendship going back to 2014.

Marielle specializes in luxury residential real estate along the North Shore, with a primary focus on Lake Forest and Lake Bluff. She has lived across the corridor, brings genuine community roots, and serves on the Lake Forest APT Committee and as Dining Chair at the Lake Forest Club. She is also the voice behind the lifestyle-led @Marielle.NorthShore Instagram blog. Married for 15 years with two kids, she is a serial renovator, a Deer Valley season pass holder, and a third-generation Camp Manito-wish alumna who once paddled for 30 days through the Canadian wilderness.
