She has led enterprise-grade implementations across relational and modern data platforms, built high-availability systems in the cloud, and delivered outcomes using Agile practices. As an AWS Solutions Architect Professional, she prioritizes security, performance, and maintainability—bringing discipline to design, clean code to delivery, and collaboration to every project.
Art Lover & Painter
Mariana’s art practice balances the precision of engineering with a quiet, human sensibility. Through minimalist forms and textured layers, her work translates emotion into visual simplicity. Each piece is an inquiry into presence—deliberate, restrained, and designed to live comfortably in modern spaces. Limited edition fine art prints will be available soon through The Ferne.
Life Outside of Work
Beyond technology and art, Mariana is grounded in family and movement. You’ll find her hiking local trails, snowboarding when the season calls, or unwinding with a stack of books on leadership, psychology, and growth. She believes in building a life of intention—one where work is meaningful, creativity is consistent, and the small moments at home matter most.
