Hi, I'm Mara.

I am a seasoned Creative Director and Designer with over 25 years experience in many facets of design and the creative process.

Currently I'm working as a Creative Director at USA Marketing Partners (formerly The Sussman Agency). My strengths are, but not limited to, brand identity, editorial design, digital and web design, and print/marketing collateral. I also possess a combination of conceptual strength and technical proficiency. A true self-starter and team player that contributes to the processes necessary to achieve goals.

I adore design ... It's my passion and what I was meant to do. I love art and copy, am a big fan of white space and I'm excellent at solving puzzles.

My passions outside of work are spending time with family. Helping my husband cook, baking or drawing with my daughter, and helping my son navigate adulthood. I am grateful everyday.
