Mary McElgunn

I like my print design like I like my wardrobe: sophisticated, modern and, above all else ... chic.

Metallic baubles, sequin-studded flair, timeless palettes and things that just "go." No, were not talking about Mary's fashion-forward clothing choices (though those are just as lovely), but rather - her design. A Michigan State University grad with her B.A. in creative advertising, this fashionista takes print design to new heights (usually three to three-and-half inches, to be precise).

Starting with M3 as an intern in 2011, Mary flexed her fashion-inspired design skills from the get-go, wowing us (and our clients) in no time at all. From her attention to detail in logo development, to her branding background and Microsoft Excel proficiency (she used to teach for CSE 101 at MSU) Mary is truly the cat's pajamas when it comes to design.

Originally from Midland, this born and bred Michigander is happy to be close to her family, while putting her talents to work in her home state. Though Mary's design mind never truly shuts down, when she's not under the roof at M3 she enjoys snowboarding, photography and surfing (... design and fashion websites, that is; not the ocean).

Though she loves all four seasons, Mary lives for fall fashion. And for this design chica it doesn't get much better than a crisp autumn day (perhaps a gin and tonic in hand) snuggled up with Adobe CS5. But no matter the season, rest assured you can find Mary, fashion clad, crafting creative designs for clients under the roof at M3.
