Hello! Thank you for visiting my website. I am a passionate and versatile designer based in Dallas, Texas. Originally from Toledo, Ohio, I moved here 7 years ago with very little but a lot of faith. I was determined to build the life I had always dreamed of. Since then, I have gained experience in design by working at award-winning design agencies, start-ups, and Fortune 500 companies.
My passion lies in creating beautiful pieces of work that visually and effectively help tell the mission and purpose of the organizations I work with. I created Visuals by ME as a means to develop my skills further while assisting small businesses and entrepreneurs. I thrive on the positive feedback I receive from my clients, and it motivates me to always produce exceptional work. I truly believe that design can inspire positive change, and I love using my skills to make a difference.
Whether you’re seeking to work with me on a long-term or short-term basis, I’m committed to creating designs that will positively impact and enhance your company’s brand; regardless of its industry. With over six years of experience in visual communications, I’m constantly learning and expanding my knowledge in the field of design. Outside of creating, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, serving, and exploring new places in Dallas, Texas.

A few kind words
Words from former or current coworkers.

“Marissa had many strengths with our company but her eye for graphics, her positivity, and her drive for success stuck out to me. She truly makes creativity look easy and is so clean about her lines and her work. She also always came into work with a smile and offered many positive vibes to flow out through our social media pages which I feel is both a stem and a result of her drive to be successful.
Working with Marissa again would be a truly rewarding experience! As an intern, working alongside many experienced individuals, she held herself together as an entire marketing department and let her work shine. My overall experience working with Marissa was absolutely great and I’m confident she would be a strong asset for any team she is a part of!”
“Marissa is great both in a team environment and working independently. During white board and brain storming sessions she is very vocal and contributes with great energy. When assigned to a task or project she always delivers on time and presents with well thought out solutions.
There is a on going project with a retail website that Marissa has really took ownership of. She will continually evaluate and make improvements to the site in-between client projects. We have taken Marissa’s evaluations and converted them into new features to create a better user experience.
