Marissa Donapel is a Philadelphia artist who graduated cum laude from Drexel University, earning a Bachelor of Science in Graphic Design with a minor in Fine Arts.

With big dreams to become a world-famous director, Marissa originally entered Drexel as a film major. Through a trial of self discovery, and many cheese strombolis from the local college pizza place, Marissa had decided to pursue her passion of creative storytelling down a different path- graphic design. They found that design had so many fascinating aspects, and that when they were all put together, it helped tell a pretty magnificent story.

Ever the art kid, you can usually find Marissa hunched over a drawing or working on one of her many cosplay costumes. However, they never say no to hanging out with her cat, Pharaoh, and enjoying a cup of iced tea.
