Let’s first agree that writing about yourself in the third person is weird.

But the thing is, Mariana has never allowed a little weirdness to stop her from following her dreams.

She’s determined like that .

She’s also a Creative Director with over a decade of experience in advertising, branding and production, working with brands like Coca-Cola, The New York Times, Vans and Expedia, just to name a few.

She believes craft and storytelling should go hand in hand, and she enjoys colaborating with directors and artists who operate outside the tradional world of advertising.

Mariana is a New Yorker, and like most New Yorkers, she was born somewhere else. In her case, Brazill.
