Marissa is a motion and multimedia designer driven by storytelling. Whether it’s from all of the sci-fi she watched as a kid or all of the times she got lost in the woods, Marissa loves the promise of an uncharted adventure. And that excitement for the unknown remains with her. Marissa’s work often humanizes complex issues such as scientific theory or political policy. From the astrophysics of a solar eclipse to the Texas Senate’s stance on immigration, she believes storytelling can spark interest in the apathetic. She views each new project as a chance to explore her passion for bold stories in multiple mediums and under different lenses.

I think [childhood play] was about pushing the edges of my known universe, of inspiring creativity to imagine a world or a life outside of my own. I still love that excitement of a new adventure, and I’m still inspired to find creativity where the edges of the known and the unknown meet. – Marissa Jones (’20), Motion Designer, Graphic Designer
