Meet Maya
I'm a digital experience art director blending traditional marketing with future-facing design. From strategy and email to paid social and UX/UI design, I bring 360 campaigns to life across every touchpoint. Lately, I've been focused on loyalty—crafting personalized, journeys that not only drive engagement but help win new business by turning attention into connection.
Meet Maya
I'm a multidisciplinary designer who sits at the intersection of art direction and product design. I love storytelling — whether that's through a campaign that stops someone mid-scroll or a product experience that makes a complicated task feel effortless. For me, design is about solving problems, and the best solutions usually blend brand storytelling with functional UX. Over the last four years I've worked on everything from OLV campaigns and photoshoots to loyalty platforms and agent-facing tools, and I'm most energized when I get to use both sides of my brain — the strategic, systems-thinking side and the craft-obsessed, detail-oriented side.
From a young age, I've always been drawn to designing and creating—whether it was journals filled with stories and poems or canvases covered in paintings and sketches. By 14, I had developed a deep affinity for digital design. I began building custom websites on Tumblr, diving into CSS and HTML to get every detail just right—from colors and fonts to transitions and background music. My drive stemmed from both curiosity and frustration: Tumblr didn’t offer the level of personalization I craved, so I taught myself how to make it happen.
At the same time, I fell in love with photography—both digital and film. I always carried a camera, capturing fleeting moments, memories, and reflections, which became the core themes of my visual storytelling.
In college, I realized my creative instincts could evolve into a career. I earned a degree in Advertising from the University of Georgia, with minors in New Media and Design, Design and Media, and Photography.
Still eager to understand the deeper layers of storytelling, human behavior, and product experience design, I went on to pursue a Master’s degree in Journalism with a concentration in Emerging Media and Design—all while working full-time in my first Art Director role.
Today, I bring all of that experience together—design, photography, strategy, and user behavior—to transform ideas into fully realized products. I deeply believe in the power of creative thinking to bridge imagination and execution, and I've proven time and again that I can bring any vision to life.
