Our Story

Nearly 10 years ago, MARA founder Jess Kasteler was working by day as a Marketing Manager when she sought out a creative outlet in selling custom-designed prints & invitations. This ultimately led her to discover a passion for utilizing strategic, captivating design as a method of helping businesses thrive. 

Today, MARA is a small heart-led studio dedicated to embracing clarity & intentionality through simplified design strategies, purpose-driven processes, & focused intensive-style project structures.

We believe each brand has a soul. Our mission is to help you unearth it.
