"The life of a designer is a life of fight. Fight against the ugliness. Just like a doctor fights against disease. For us, the visual disease is what we have around, and what we try to do is cure it somehow with design.”
Massimo Vignelli
Why hire me?
My Story

My career has always been driven by curiosity, creativity and the desire to understand how things work.
I started my professional life in visual design and spent many years creating brands, campaigns and events for B2B and B2C clients. Along the way, I became increasingly interested in the digital side of design, not only in how something looks, but also in how people interact with it and how design can make complex things easier to understand.
That curiosity gradually led me to UI/UX design. Today, I design B2B web applications and ERP interfaces, create prototypes and work closely with developers to turn complex requirements into clear, accessible and intuitive experiences.
I believe great design should create an aesthetic experience while being accessible to everyone. Beauty and accessibility should be integral parts of the same design process.
Curiosity has always been at the heart of my work. I enjoy exploring new tools and tackling new challenges. There is always something new to discover, and that is what keeps design exciting for me.

SUCCESS STORIES
I highly recommend Mari for AD and graphic designer positions. In her time at Arkki, she has shown the technical and interpersonal skills that make for a truly exceptional AD and team member. In particular, she is not afraid to overtake any challenge, and learn new technologies or skills if needed. Mari offers professional vision, a multitude of technical skills, plus adaptability and grace under pressure. We will miss having Mari on our team, but our loss can be your gain.
