A Little More About Me

I was born and raised in Tiburon, California, but I now call Colorado Springs home, where I enjoy breathtaking mountain views.

As a designer, I'm well-known for my ability to absorb feedback and transform it into stunning designs. I'm also a compassionate individual who cares deeply about the environment, which inspires my love for design.

I earned my BA in graphic design studies with a minor in advertising from San Jose State University and was honored to lead the team that won the prestigious Blue Cow award for the best advertising campaign. Additionally, I've earned a certificate in UI/UX from Google, further enhancing my design skills.

Outside of work, I'm an avid video game enthusiast with a love for games like Legend of Zelda, Mario Party, and Animal Crossing. I'm also a big fan of audio books, with Stephen King's "Fairy Tale" being my current favorite. And in my free time, I enjoy crocheting adorable food animal mashups.

Testimonals

Joshua Lipka, CA

"Maria has an excellent eye for design. From the moment we brought her onboard, Maria could follow brand guidelines while fulfilling any project requests she was assigned. Easily matching up the brand styling and sometimes adding a bit of her flair made her work better than average; it stood out and got our attention. She was able to give a fresh perspective on previously created designs while using them as inspiration for her final export. Maria worked fast while maintaining high-quality work for all the posts and projects she created for #ICANHELP. We could always rely on her for late or last-minute requests. Because of this, we found her loyal and reliable, and I’m sure she will make a great asset to her future team!"
