Meet Maria
I host. I curate. I connect. I create. I run a business—and I help others do the same.
I’ve spent the last decade in retail, design, and digital storytelling — from visual merchandising and wholesale to running my own brick-and-mortar. I help build brands that people love to talk about.
As a creative consultant, brand builder, and curator of beautiful things (online and IRL), I help creative entrepreneurs and small businesses find clarity in their brand voice, confidence in their visuals, and connection with their communities. Whether it’s a custom branding project, a digital strategy session, or a cheeky Substack post — everything I do is rooted in creativity, intention, and good taste.
