About Our Work What We Do Who We Serve Careers Contact Leadership About Leadership Leadership Team At Marathon, We Run Faster and See Further And Our Experience Makes All the Difference Four employees. Four clients. That's how Marathon Consulting began operations in 2006. The founders — Harris Pezzella, Ben Ricks, Tony Cortinas, and Al Moore — guided our company in the early days. They drew upon over 80 years of IT and industry experience in Hampton Roads to create a foundation for success. Today, we are 95+ employees strong and proud to have served over 400 clients. The key to our growth? A measured, deliberate approach with every hire and client engagement. And still today, our leadership team sets the pace — whether it’s technical complexity, team leadership, client relations, quality assurance, or business planning.
