One person. Whole projects.
I'm Marcelina. Venture Ink is my studio in Colorado, and I do all of
it — the design, the build, the words, and the
drawings in the margins.
I've lived in Poland, New York, Prague, London, and Miami before
landing here. I started out running marketing and design for a cultural institute in New York — exhibitions, concerts, film programmes, visiting artists, and the
small crises that come with all of it. Then six years as senior designer and front-end developer at a software company, where I owned the product design, the website,
and the brand.
So I know what it's like on your side of the table: a season to announce, a board with opinions, and nobody whose
actual job is the website.
Now I build my own iOS apps and take on a small number of client
projects a year. I work with cultural organizations, nonprofits, and
independent makers — people whose work matters more than their
marketing budget suggests it should.
I'm also a mother of two, which is why I keep the project list short
and the timelines honest.
