Bio

Maria Senzig is a senior in the Design and Visual Communication program at UW-Milwaukee. Along with her in-progress BFA degree, she also has a completed minor in Advertising. Maria was born and raised in the small Shawano, Wi. She moved to Milwaukee in 2015 after graduating high school. Before she began her journey as a designer, she spent a lot of my time working with all different mediums in art, including drawing, painting, and ceramics. The creative process has always been her avenue for self-expression and stress relief, and that passion followed into her digital work. Aside from school and art, Maria is currently designer at Union Marketing for UW-Milwaukee.
