Ciao, I'm Marianna! I’m a full-time freelance design-y creative director and food and beverage illustrator.

I was born and raised in a pizza shop in Udine, Italy and before landing in Los Angeles, I spent 7 years in NYC after going to school in Ohio.

My interest for art direction currently takes the form of bridging the gap between digital experiences, branding and marketing campaigns through projects that create value and have a positive impact on the world ♥

My illustrations are inspired by the flavors of my life which include my Italian roots, farmers markets, breaking bread with friends and a healthy dose of color theory.
