Hi, I’m Maja — a Sydney-based designer who makes brands look sharp, confident, and completely unforgettable. I specialise in presentation design, branding, packaging, and illustration—with a knack for turning complex ideas into clear, engaging visuals. Over the years, I’ve worked with some amazing teams: At Canva, I’ve designed 300+ presentation templates and pitch decks used by professionals all over the world. I’ve contributed to major campaigns for Coca-Cola, Fanta, Cheezels, and Kettle Chips—working across packaging, product launches, and promo design. I even got to illustrate Snapchat filters for their global campaigns. (Definitely a fun one!) Recently, I launched Quirk Studio, where I help brands express themselves in ways that feel fresh, thoughtful, and true to who they are. Whether you need an investor-ready pitch deck, a branded slide template, or a whole visual identity—I bring structure, style, and strategy to the table. And I’m always up for a new challenge. Let’s make something great together. ✨
