Hello, I'm Maria.

Engineering Manager Sparkle icon UX Nerd Sparkle icon Full-Stack Firestarter

⚡️ I light the match that gets things moving — with strategy, empathy, and a plan.

Based in the Twin Cities, I lead teams that turn complex business problems into beautiful, functional digital experiences — powered by code, design sense, and the spark to get things moving in the right direction.

Over the past decade, I’ve shipped everything from enterprise-scale WordPress overhauls to highly customized ServiceNow portals. I’ve worked across industries, teams, and tech stacks — always building with performance, accessibility, and people in mind.

Whether it’s a product stuck in tech debt or a brand ready to evolve, I’m the one who lights the fuse — and delivers with care.

No matter the project, my focus stays the same: craft seamless user experiences and build systems that don’t break under pressure (or turn into a dumpster fire ).

I thrive in the in-between spaces where

  • design meets development,
  • vision meets velocity,
  • and good ideas catch fire.

Whether I’m untangling technical debt, mentoring devs, or pushing for better design decisions, I bring the spark ⚡️ — and keep things moving forward with clarity, speed, and a bit of wit.
