I explore design with curiosity & creativity              

I'm Mara, a product designer based in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Art has been my passion for as long as I can remember! I've had a passion for art since childhood and was lucky enough to attend a high school with a vibrant arts program. This experience motivated me to move to San Francisco to study photography. However, I eventually shifted my focus to graphic design, and after a few years, I returned to Pennsylvania to complete my degree at Edinboro University.

During my time in San Francisco, I learned a valuable lesson: traveling to new places expands my perspectives and ignites my creativity. I enjoy discovering hidden gems in unfamiliar locations and immersing myself in new cultures. When I'm not out and about, attending music festivals or trying new things, I'm happiest at home. When I'm not working I enjoy making pottery, playing video games, and spending time with my partner and pets.
