storytelling
for impact.
Brand Strategy, Storytelling & Web Design
I’m Marisa. I help change-makers and career-changers find their voice and share their stories to deepen human connections, build bridges, grow communities, and inspire positive action.
KEEPING IT REAL. KEEPING IT HUMAN.
cultivating CLARITY
authenticity
& CONNECTION.
We live in a fast-paced, automated, and isolating world. We’re drowning in content, swimming in a sea of sameness, and struggling to be seen and heard. The antidote to this is our personal stories. Through storytelling, we create a space where people feel safe to show up as they are, connect on a deeper human level, and spark real, meaningful change.
My Sweet Spots
-
BUILDING YOUR BRAND & INFLUENCE
Like a sounding board, I help you shape your narrative and raise your visibility. My clients are typically founders, consultants, change-makers or changing careers. Their missions are lofty, their experience rich and varied. Consolidating it may not come easily. Through deep work, we'll break through to your brand essence and story, and craft a plan to amplify your influence.

REFINING YOUR STRATEGY & MESSAGING
Whether you’re launching, rebranding, stuck or expanding, I’ll help you open your creative tap, find your angle and voice, and refine your messaging and stories to move your audience to action. Through a holistic and personalized process, we’ll clarify your vision and goals, identify what needs to shift, illustrate your ideas with the right words and images, and breathe new life into your business.

SCALING YOUR COMMUNITY & IMPACT
In this age of remote work and AI, I’m a staunch believer in human connection. I’ve curated live events for female founders, and led in-person workshops on storytelling, thought leadership, and developing your personal brand. I also co-founded a community offering educational resources, support, and real-world experiences to bring more balance to digital life for parents and teens.

Stories that connect and persuade
“Marisa is one of the few people I know who can handle an extreme level of detail, while keeping the big picture in view. Her ability to distill a mountain of information down to its key messages, figures, images, and stories to connect with and persuade an audience is a skill I try to impart to the start-up founders I coach when they pitch for investment.”
Beth Susanne | Founder & CEO, Visions in Focus
