Hello. Bonjour. Hola. Olá.

Hi there, I’m Mari

a Product and UX Designer
based in Ottawa, Ontario.

In my career, I have always been inspired by projects that break complex problems down into simple and intuitive solutions. In this busy world, I strive to simplify processes.

I am drawn to questions, colours, shapes, and data-driven solutions. My natural curiosity propels me to search for better ways of doing things and data-driven solutions to make people's lives a little easier, one problem at a time.

As a graphic designer and advertising professional with over eight years of experience, I have learned the importance of working collaboratively to develop innovative solutions. Along the way, I also learned to balance solutions between customers' needs and business goals.

Calligraphy, Lego blocks, and good books are some of my favourite things to do in my spare time. You never know where the next design inspiration will strike.
