storytelling
for impact.
Brand Strategy, Storytelling & Web Design
I'm Marisa. I help change-makers and career-changers stop underselling themselves and start sharing stories that make people lean in, take notice, and take action.
KEEPING IT REAL. KEEPING IT HUMAN.
cultivating CLARITY,
authenticity & IMPACT.
In a world of noise, automation, and sameness, your story is your superpower. I help change-makers and career-changers cut through the clutter with authentic storytelling that doesn't just get you seen—it gets you remembered, trusted, and followed. Because when you share your truth, you don't just build a brand. You build a movement.

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.

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 founders, and led workshops on storytelling, thought leadership, and building your unique brand. I’ve co-founded a community offering IRL experiences to bring more balance to digital life for parents and teens, and another for professionals seeking hope and connection in these challenging times.
