Hi, I'm Maria Keeler, graphic designer and illustrator currently based in Jersey City, NJ.
For more than 10 years, I've worked across branding, packaging, marketing, and advertising, creating concept-driven visual identities that blend strategic thinking with illustration. My work ranges from consumer packaging and integrated campaigns to greeting cards, children's products, and brand systems.
While I enjoy uncovering the big idea behind a project, my favorite part has always been bringing it to life. For me, design is like assembling a visual puzzle—each piece reveals something new, and the full picture often emerges along the way. I love the hands-on process of exploring concepts, building visual systems, crafting illustrations, and refining details until everything clicks into place.
I'm currently exploring new opportunities in New York City and am available for freelance design and illustration projects.
