Mia Mar – Designer

Hi! I'm a passionate and experienced book cover and interior designer. I specialize in picture books—dyi, craft, sewing, cooking, and more.

Overview

Hi! Thanks for looking at my profile! I'd love to help with your self-publishing endeavor! I'm expedient, conscientious, and pay close attention to current trends. I'm an avid book reader and draw inspiration from both authors and designers. I don't design for the sake of design. I design with my clients goals in mind. I have a background in marketing, so I understand the steps needed to capture a potential reader's attention—quickly and effectively. I have a positive attitude and a passion for what I do. I'm devoted to the people I work with and the projects I'm offered. I hope you will consider me for your book design needs!

Specialties: Photo books—crafts, sewing, quilting, knitting, embroidery, cooking/beverage, and coffee table.
