Hi! My name is Maia, and I'm a designer by heart and by trade. I have been in the industry in various capacities since 2017, and before that I studied painting at SCAD then Warren Wilson College. As a designer, I excel in print, digital, and email design, with a keen focus on optimizing performance through analysis. With over 7 years of experience, I’ve led and collaborated on projects across agency, in-house, and freelance environments, curating a diverse portfolio of modern and accessible designs.  I thrive in collaborative, cross-functional environments, and am passionate about building community, connecting people, and telling stories. I pride myself on being a self-starter, providing efficient and high-quality output, and being willing to roll my sleeves up for projects across channels. Outside work, I love trying new cuisines (Japanese is my favorite), drinking natural wine and craft cocktails, all things horror/thriller from books to film, and spending time with my cat Meena. --- Freelance Designer @ mcgs design et al.
