GRAPHIC DESIGN
Marissa Epperly
Who am I? That’s a question I’ve been asking my entire life. I like to define myself as being lost
in the woods, but not because I don’t know where I’m going but because I want to be there. Why, you may ask? Well because life’s more about the journey, right? At the surface I’m an animator turned designer, with a dark sense of humor, but in reality, I’m like most 22 going on 23-year-olds nowadays living in an eternal existential crisis, but I push through and continue to be happily lost in the woods.
