Marisa has always used media to understand and magnify her experience of the world. From her early days of carefree writing and photography to her decade-long career as an award-winning video, print, and web producer, Marisa has spent her life creating media. After winning multiple awards in creative writing and photography as a high school student, she went on to study the art and science of media production at Brown University and got a Masters in communication design at a prestigious London art school. Marisa started making movies when she was 17 and, in her early 20s, shot her first full-length documentary in the Brazilian Amazon. She then went on to produce dozens of web, video, design and interactive media projects for clients like the Getty Museum, PBS, UCLA, Room to Read, and the State of California. Cumulatively, these projects have moved over 70,000 units, generated over $800,000 in sales, and won 30+ industry awards. Today, Marisa’s passion and purpose lies in helping thought leaders and entrepreneurs translate their knowledge and wisdom into an online platform that makes money and gets results. Because she often works with highly creative individuals who love to get distracted, she developed a simple, step-by-step system that takes the guesswork out and ensures you get things done quickly, effectively, and in your most authentic voice.
