Marjorie Perry

President and CEO
MZM Construction & Management

Marjorie Perry serves on numerous esteemed boards, including RWJ UMDNJ, the New Jersey Chamber of Commerce, the Newark Regional Business Partnership, and the Adubato Advisory Board. The Harvard Business School graduate is President and CEO of MZM Construction & Management Company,  a company she co-founded more than 25 years ago.

In addition to her extremely successful business career, Perry is also a coveted public speaker, writer, and role model for women and minorities in business. When invited to join the LSNJ board, the cause resonated. Perry knows first-hand through her business experience just how quickly legal costs can skyrocket and notes the critical role Legal Services and other nonprofits have played in recent years for immigrants in crisis and in housing cases throughout the pandemic.

As she learns more about LSNJ, Perry says she is now “getting a bigger overview on how deep this dive goes.” As one of a few non-attorneys on the board, she is eager to offer a new perspective and lend a hand in any way she can. “The need is greater than I’ve seen in my lifetime, so thank God for Legal Services. What would people do?”
