About

I’m Maria Martignetti, a senior graphic designer and accessibility specialist with 20+ years of experience creating brand-driven communication materials, from print and packaging to production-ready design systems. I focus on making content clear, consistent, and accessible—especially for enterprise and government environments where quality, standards, and usability matter.

I’ve led and mentored teams while managing multiple concurrent design projects, guiding remediation and quality assurance workflows to deliver PDFs, reports, and templates that meet accessibility expectations. My strengths include design systems, creative direction, and building templates aligned to brand guidelines—ensuring every deliverable is polished, practical, and ready for real-world use.
