Outside of advertising, you'll usually find me upside down, twisted in all different directions, or balancing on one limb. I love yoga for the challenge, and the occasional reminder that what feels impossible today might just need a different approach tomorrow. It's probably why I enjoy creative problem-solving so much too. Whether it's a brief or a headstand, I'm always looking for a new angle.
Hi, I’m Marlana!
