Maria Zambrano

About

I’m a multidisciplinary designer with a deep love for crafting thoughtful, concept-driven visuals — from branding and editorial design to UI/UX, print, social, and apparel. My work is rooted in understanding: the client, their mission, and the people they’re trying to reach. With a background in classical music, music business, and project management, I bring a creative-meets-strategic lens to every project. I’m especially passionate about collaborating with people and organizations creating positive impact — whether that’s in the arts, social change, or community building. Lately, I’ve been proud to support mission-driven work through organizations like Radical Partners, helping bring big ideas to life through design that feels just right. I’m fluent in English, Spanish is my mother tongue, and I’m currently learning French and Japanese — because connecting across cultures lights me up. Always here to listen, explore, and design with heart
