Designer of many things

I help businesses and organizations thrive by building brands and experiences that spark connection, inspire action, and deliver results.

Hola! I’m María Inés.

I’m a designer and creative leader who’s endlessly curious about how design can make life better.

Over the years, I’ve worked across all kinds of industries and settings, building cohesive brands, telling stories that matter, and creating intuitive experiences for digital, print, and in-person moments. That mix of work has given me a well-rounded perspective and a big toolkit to pull from.

I’m happiest when I’m solving different types of problems, diving into something new, and stretching my skills along the way. Every project is a chance to learn, experiment, and make something that truly connects with people.

Need help with your project?

  • “María-Inés is a full-stack designer who brings skill, thoughtfulness, and empathy to her work. No matter what part of her skillset she was exercising, she is a quiet leader, centering the team around the “why” behind a project and making sure we didn’t lose sight of the business objectives while still maintaining a user-centric approach.”

    NICOLE VILLENEUVE
    Swing Therapeutics, Director of Marketing

  • “María-Inés’ first project was to develop branding for the Swing Care telemedicine clinic so that we could launch our customer-facing marketing website. She quickly dove in, with a thoughtful approach that allowed our team to quickly define the 'why' that she then leveraged to drive our visual style. She also managed to quickly align the organization behind a common vision—no small feat.

    NELSON MITCHELL
    Swing Therapeutics, Former Head of Product / Co-Founder

  • “María-Inés managed the brand re-design process for my nonprofit social enterprise, and we love what she created for us. She was thorough and communicative throughout the process. She went above and beyond her outlined scope to ensure that we had an end result that clearly represented our brand identity and that we were happy with. I would highly recommend Maria-Inés!”

    AYLA SCHLOSSER
    Resonate, Former CEO/Cofounder

  • “María-Inés is simply outstanding. She's a profoundly talented artist with a thoughtful, holistic approach to her work, evident in the beautiful work she produces. Even more rare, her strong sense of design and aesthetics is balanced by deeply organized work habits and rigorous adherence to schedules and budgets. She's an absolute dream to work with, and I'm glad to name her among my go-to designers for print and web design projects.”
