Hey! I’m Mary Dunlop.

Brand Experience Designer based in Raleigh, NC.

I’m a multidisciplinary graphic designer with over a decade of experience. My work includes brand identity, creative direction, campaign/product launches and management, large-scale signage and murals, illustration, hand lettering, & marketing.

Because I am business minded and detail oriented, I don't just want to make beautiful things, but to solve problems and create well-loved experiences.
