about me ***
hi i am maria!
I’m a visual designer from California with a passion for branding, website design, typography, and editorial work. I love experimenting with storytelling through design, drawing inspiration from personal and cultural narratives to create work that feels authentic and thoughtful .
As a Mexican American and daughter of immigrants, my culture and background fuels my curiosity and drives me to explore themes of identity, community, belonging, and tradition. I carry the stories of my family’s strength and perseverance through their immigration journeys, which inspire me to approach design challenges with the same determination and purpose.
Outside of design, I’m drawn to creative, hands-on activities like sewing, hiking, and collecting miscellaneous treasures to tuck into my journals. These everyday inspirations help me stay grounded and curious in my creative process.
With experience in Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, and InDesign, I bring a versatile skill set and a thoughtful, deteremined mindset to every project. I’m always excited to collaborate and bring bold, heartfelt ideas to life—let’s create something together!
