What People Are Saying

Mariama is professional and amiable, she is a joy to work with! She understands trends and what’s happening on social deeply and easily breaks it down so you can apply it to your brand. Highly recommend working with her if you are building a product or personal brand in today’s media landscape!

-Paula N. Mugabi | @mspaulapresents

Our goal was to leverage the power of social-first storytelling to center the fun as well as the mission-driven focus of an evening celebrating Artisan Fashion, in a way that resonates with both the Fashion Incubator San Francisco and Human Rights Foundation communities. Mariama and her team delivered. From day-of event capture to assets due next day for press to the social rollout, everything was executed thoughtfully, beautifully and on time.

-Jeanine Silberblatt | @fashionincubatorsanfrancisco

Mariama came into the brand and gave us the exact blueprint that we needed. She understood how to translate the things happening inside of our studio into a visual identity and a social presence with a heartbeat. Excellent design skills, easy to work with and always bringing fresh ideas. Mariama has certainly taken our presence to the next level!
