​Hello! My name is Madeleine. You can call me Maddie.

ABOUT

Experiences in various fields over the years have shaped me as a designer. I majored in  studio art  in high school, which lead me to studying industrial design in Pittsburgh. I moved to NYC where I started a business decluttering and organizing homes and offices while also freelancing at public relations companies and working in retail (New York is expensive). I went back to school and finished a degree in advertising with a concentration in art direction. Then I became Art Director at Mighty Engine in Philadelphia. Now, I am in Atlanta working as a Hybrid Design Consultant at The Creative Group. 
​
Outside of my creative and career pursuits, my other interests include sailing and rowing boats, window shopping for mid-century modern furniture, and watching Marvel movies and shows. I can give you recommendations for all types of podcasts and vegetarian recipes.
