Graphic Design & Illustration

Hi I’m Mary Ann, a graphic designer from Lac du Flambeau, WI and currently based out of Madison, WI. I started college wanting to be a pharmacist to studying government & law to potentially working with Native American youth and fitness. It took me a while to realize my true love which has always been art. For as long as I can remember, I’ve always had a natural talent and passion for creating. Due to my attention to detail, I am constantly absorbing ideas from everyday life. I am very passionate about design and driven to deliver beautiful work.
