Well, hello there.
Hi! I’m Renee, pleased to meet you! I’m a passionate, versatile creative, brand strategist, and loud introvert. Founded Maroma Consultancy and design firm, a studio dedicated to improving the way we live and impact lives through a conscious creative mindset, combining emotion, functionality, and aesthetics.
I have over 10 years of experience leading strategic creative projects across a range of industries such as Real estate, hospitality, food, tech, logistics, beauty, beverages, education, and social innovation some of these include Thor Urbana capital, globos payaso, atlética, Pharmalife, El Tequileño, Gobierno de Guadalajara, CODE, Palacio de Hierro, Comex. My passion for design, strategy, and research has led me to participate in different initiatives focused on promoting new design disciplines in the country and world such as Ladies Wine and Design, What Design Can do, and PRIMER, a futures design initiative. I believe that human-centered companies and services will be the ones that truly change people’s lives.
I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Industrial Design and a Strategy and innovation Certificate from ITESM, a futures studies certificate from Escola Massana, and a Brand Driven Innovations certificate from CEDIM.
I’ve Been a Collaborator of Coolhuntermx.com since 2012, the most important creative platform in the country, my roles within Coolhuntermx include trend hunting, photographing, and journalist as well as a project-designer in the in-house studio collaborating with brands such as Comex, Palacio de Hierro, Adidas, Nike, Jose Cuervo to mention some. 2020 Coolhuntermx produced and directed the first Mexican Documentary about Design in Mexico called “Generación Espontánea: 10 años de diseño en México”, where I was part of the production team in Guadalajara.
My years of experience as a brand strategist and multidisciplinary designer had led me to develop skills that allow me to approach solutions through different disciplines, using the design spectrum as a tool to propose new solutions to a specific challenge.
My personal projects include The Anónima, a fine art photography project, and Intentional an objects shop designed by maroma. I’ve lived in about 11 Cities across the Country (Mexico), I’m half Tapatía (This means I was born in Guadalajara) and half Norteña (I was raised on the north-east side of the country, Monterrey). I’ve been a dancer since I was 3 years old, so I love dancing. I’m an art enthusiast, a foodie, and a melomaniac. I do everything passional, with love, empathy, and creativity.
“Do the Work that feeds your soul, not your ego” J.W.
