Most founders start with the logo. I start with the strategy.
You're not looking for someone to make you a logo. You're looking for someone who can take everything you see in your head, make sense of it, and turn it into a business.
That happens in the right order. The positioning shapes the messaging. The messaging shapes the identity.
And every piece works together to create a brand people understand, remember and want to buy from.
And every piece works together to create a brand people understand, remember and want to buy from.
I bring 15+ years of strategy, creative and ecommerce experience, so you don't have to figure out every piece on your own.
You bring the vision. I see it, and I know how to build it.
Wherever you are, there's a way in.
From the idea you can't stop thinking about to the brand
that's outgrown its first chapter.
The Build
Foundations: You have the idea and want the brand built right from the start. Positioning, messaging and a visual identity, ready to take to market.
Launch: You want one partner beside you until your brand is live and selling. Everything in Foundations, plus your Shopify build and launch.
The Executive Suite (Coming 2027)
You've launched, and you're selling, but the brand hasn't kept up with the business. A 4-month audit and accelerator: sharper positioning and messaging, refined visual guidelines, website updates, and guides your team can run with.
Every piece, in the right order.
You don't need to know what your positioning should be, how to explain why your brand is different, what it should look like, or how it translates to Shopify. That's my job.
Strategy. We figure out what you're building, who it's for, where it belongs in the market and why someone should choose it.
Messaging. We put words around the thing you've been trying to explain: your positioning, story, voice and the message that makes the right customer care.
Identity. We translate the strategy into a visual identity that feels distinctive, elevated and worthy of the business you're building.
Shopify. We turn it into a real shopping experience, thoughtfully designed and ready to sell. (Included in Launch.)
You bring the vision. I make sure every decision supports it.
Hi, I’m MarisaI've spent my career building brands.
It started in fashion and editorial in New York and eventually led me to build my own agency, where I've helped more than 150 brands across fashion, beauty, wellness and lifestyle come to life.
But the real value of 15+ years isn't the number.
It's knowing what matters.
Which decisions need to be made now. Which can wait. Where founders tend to overspend. What customers actually notice. And what needs to be right from the beginning if you want to build something that lasts.
You're not hiring me to make your brand look established.
You're hiring me to help you build it that way.

You've wondered “what if?” long enough.

What if you stopped waiting until you knew exactly how to do it?
What if this was the year you finally became the founder you've been thinking about becoming?
You don't need to know every step.
You just need to be ready to take the first one.
