Maire McHugh

Graphic/Motion Designer

When I was 7 years old, I saw the Waterlilies by Monet and instantly fell in love with art. Since then, I have picked up cameras, paint brushes, sewing needles, and a rug tufter. In high school, I was able to merge my creativity through photography and embroidery and began learning the Adobe Suite.

At CU Boulder, I started as an economics major, but soon found myself being more interested in how the products were being advertised rather than supply and demand. That’s when I found creative advertising for art direction. Since thinking and ideating about strategy behind design, I have found my designs being much more intentional.

When I’m not working, I am enjoying the beautiful Colorado weather. I love skiing, playing pickleball, and being with friends & family. You can find me doing puzzles, watching reality TV, and reading in my downtime.
