THE PORTFOLIO

The work.
From idea, to strategy, to delivery.

The objective, my role, and the outcome behind each project. The venue choices, creative decisions, operational details, and results show how I work.

Ritz-Carlton Dubai

My pièce de résistance: six months of remote planning across time zones, 120+ global C-suite leaders, and a Ritz-Carlton setting on the Arabian Gulf. Interactive solution showcases replaced traditional booths. The result: $4M in pipeline.

BRAND & WEBSITE / MBE STUDIO

A veteran with a craft, a name, and a dream. I revamped her brand, created the logo, and designed the website and business cards to give her work the presence it deserved.

BRAND, WEBSITE & AI / MBE

Mary Brand Experiences

I built the new version of this site in two days, using AI for design and implementation while directing the strategy, voice, and imagery. Concurrent workflows kept the work moving. My experience building MBE and other projects led me to help others learn the tools.

Corporate programs reflect work from my career. MBE Studio projects are identified separately.

LET’S TALK

A role. A project.
The right fit.

I’m open to full-time events or marketing leadership roles and freelance projects. If you need someone who brings creative direction, operational ownership and technology fluency together, let’s talk.
