Hello! I'm Maggie.

Between becoming one of Destinations International's 30 Under 30s, interviewing Gordon Ramsay to promote his Baltimore restaurant, playing The Ring's horrifying antagonist Samara on the morning news as a publicity stunt and acting as the right-hand woman to the inventor of the foam Cheesehead Hat, my work experience has taught me many things. But the key learning that stands out the most? The value of a good story.

​

This is what drove me to a career in marketing – the curiosity and excitement that comes from storytelling. As a chronic "why?" asker, I love diving into the root of what drives someone to take action and finding out how brands can accomplish this while staying true to their mission and identity.

​

My speciality is finding the balance between two seemingly opposite ways of thinking: analytical and creative. Some might say I've forced my right and left brains to become friends. Well, maybe siblings that fall under the "sometimes-we-bicker-but-ultimately-we-understand-each-other" category. This helps me stay obsessively detail-oriented while being able to take a step back to see the bigger picture, whether I am working on a design project or strategizing alongside my team.

​

What really excites me in this field is the connection that can be built from strong storytelling. I want my work to be more than just attention-grabbing; I want it to drive action and elicit emotions. My goal is to bridge audiences' needs with a brand's identity to build trust, a shared understanding and a memorable connection.
