Hello, I'm Margo

Growing up in a creative upbringing, along with my fine arts and design educational background, I've been driven by artistic pursuits and my sense of imagination from a young age. Additionally, having moved to Canada on my own and lived in two countries on two continents, I've become a self-motivated and curious learner who finds inspiration in different cultures, life experiences, and stories. As a result, I've acquired diverse work experiences by designing for clients across various industries, markets and scales of influence, from boutique businesses to global brands. I'm versatile and can handle projects from print to digital, but most importantly, I love working on thoughtful projects that offer creative flexibility!

In my spare time, I love engaging in other crafty and creative outlets, such as painting and taking film photos, which allows me to take a break from my digital screens. Sometimes, I even develop and scan my own films, unless I'm feeling lazy. When the weather is nice, I also enjoy skateboarding, going on long walks, discovering vintage markets, and thrifting various items. Most of the time, though, I'm a homebody. I usually watch movies in bed with my cat, and enjoy dancing in the shower a lot.
