Mara Higgins

I am the Founder and President of the exclusive member-based deal site, Mainely Mara, that caters to women in the Greater Portland area. I offer deals at the most hip, stylish and always locally owned boutiques, spas and wellness spots.

Local Style is my style content provider. It provides fashion, beauty and style with a local twist. Within two years, I'm approaching 6,000 members and work with over 100 local businesses. I currently collaborate with businesses and publications for writing, video segments, as well as Buy Local awareness.

I am also a contributing editor to Maine Magazine's Shop Maine blog and serve on the Portland Museum of Art's Contemporaries steering committee.
