Welcome to the popular “Women in Business” section, our annual look at a few good business owners, professionals, and company officers who represent the leading role women have taken in the greater Baltimore business community.
The range of professionals represented this year in the pages that follow is impressive, from accomplished plastic surgeons, a successful attorney, and the owner of a popular restaurant to a well-known interior designer and the president of a dog-walking service that’s become a howling success.
As has been the tradition with this special section, these women’s participation in the section has extra significance: Some of the proceeds from the section will go to the Maryland Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure, more affectionately known as Komen Maryland, to support breast cancer research and awareness.
The “Women in Business” supplement offers business owners and executives a fresh venue to introduce themselves to both our readers and to other entrepreneurs.
Ladies, let the networking begin. It’s for a good cause.

Ann Y. Fenwick, CFP™, MSFS, President
Johanna Bathurst, MBA
Fenwick Financial Services, LLC
Commerce Centre East
1777 Reisterstown Road, Suite 280
Pikesville, MD 21208
410-821-0089
Fenwick Financial Services opened its doors for business after president and founder Ann Fenwick decided that the “corporate view” of financial planning was vastly different from hers. Ann’s idea was to build an independent financial advisory boutique that puts clients’ needs and goals before anything else.
“Developing strong relationships with our clients was key,” she says. “We work hard to gain their trust, and today we have clients who have been with us for decades.” Ann’s simple approach struck a cord because today Fenwick Financial is a thriving business that is growing by leaps and bounds.
In August of 2010, Ann invited Johanna Bathurst to join the Fenwick Financial team. Together, Ann and Johanna have more than 40 years of experience in financial services and comprehensive financial planning. Ann and Johanna take pride in their personalized approach to financial planning, which includes portfolio design that is unique for each individual client. Each investment is selected by hand after careful review and all investments are managed in-house by Ann and Johanna. “This level of service just can’t be matched by large firms.”
Ann and Johanna believe that most of us know where we want to go, but unless we have a plan to get there, it’s easy to get lost along the way. With changing tax laws, uncertainty about the future of Social Security benefits, and, of course, market volatility, having an experienced financial advisor helping you reach your goals is more important than ever.

The Marriner women who own and operate Victoria Gastro Pub (along with husband and father Randy Marriner) believe that service is synonymous with brand, and strive to exceed every guest’s expectations. The definition of gastro pub—“a warm, inviting pub that serves sophisticated yet unpretentious food”—means a menu drawn from local ingredients, a superb chef, and an atmosphere that can best be described as “the living room of the community.”
The Marriner family has been in the restaurant business for several generations: Mary Marriner’s family owned Max Blob’s Bavarian Biergarten in Jessup, and she spent many years developing and baking desserts for that business. She now brings expertise to Victoria, working with her daughters, Tori Marriner, manager of the restaurant, and Rachael Marriner Mull, business manager of its parent company, the Victoria Restaurant Group.
Tori describes the restaurant’s approach as proactive: “We strive to figure out how many different ways there are to say yes to a guest. And that means you listen to what they are saying, both verbally and nonverbally.”
While the Victoria Restaurant Group was formed to be a multiunit operation, says Rachael, no specific timeline has been established for additional establishments.
