About me
Introduction
\\Designed in China, manufactured in Malaysia, shipped to Australia, purchased by US America.//
Hey there! I'm Marina Leong-Schotsch, also known as Mars Schotsch (pronounced as 'shots') to make things simpler.
I find the fastest and easiest ways to make full use of my major in advertising design, technology and business development workflows for optimal creative output. Kinda-like a 'full-stack developer' but on the artsy side.
I've collaborated on international projects across Australia, Singapore, Shanghai, and Malaysia; and won the best student startup business idea in Sydney's start-up incubation pitch competition in 2020.
I'm currently pitching my path towards product design and development to further practice the most breath-taking visual and interactive storytelling that mankind can ever invent.
I am looking for opportunities to learn, practice, and experiment on creating engaging physical and digital solutions for different audiences and goals.
Consider me to be a part of your team as I pride myself in thinking outside the box based on my diverse skillsets, background and experiences.
