I'm Marie Lombardo, a Brooklyn based creative, who thrives on experimenting, pushing the boundaries, and ultimately creating interesting, unique pieces. My whole life has been a creative endeavor, whether it was being a hair stylist for seven years, working in the interior design industry for the last three years, or my personal favorite photography, film and design for social. I attended The University of Akron, back home in Ohio, for Marketing Management and Sales Management. All of these endeavors have helped build an amazing foundation for my well-versed creative and business skills that I have today. In the past three years I have learned more about photography, project management, social media, content creation, campaigns, and branding than I have in the past. The era of social media is not going away any time soon, with advertisers spending over $35 billion a year worldwide. Having the knowledge of project management from conception and pitching projects, to scheduling and budgets, to client specific programs, this will help meet and exceed client expectations.
