Nice to meet you!

I’m Marisa, a junior at the University of Michigan studying User Experience Design.

Design has always found a way to shine in my life. From my humble beginnings as a hobby artist, to selling HTML code for forum designs as a pre-teen, to now designing innovative and user-friendly products for my career.

My goal is to go beyond the norm, utilizing my strengths in empathy and team-building to create future-focused products that revolutionize the way we use technology. I perform best when I can leverage my empathy to understand the unique needs of stakeholders and consumers, and thrive in collaborative environments where I can guide those with less experience and energize my coworkers with a positive mindset.

In my life aside from art and design, I’m a heavy-lifting gymrat with love for espresso. I enjoy travel and am always looking for my next adventure!
