Hello! I’m Margerie. Here’s a little info about me.
I came to Design after earning a Degree in Political Science and International Development, working in a coffee shop for 3 years, and moving to Vancouver from my homeland, New Zealand.
One of the things I love about the Creative Industry is that there’s so much room for you to apply the skills, knowledge and experience of the world you already have to help others tell their story. As such, I love to engage with projects that are concerned with Social Justice, Education, and Ethical Business.
That being said, if you have a different kind of project that you’re excited about, and think we could be a good team, I’d love to hear about it!
