After earning a BA in Fine Art at Oxford Brookes University, Maria pursued an MA in Cultural Studies, deepening an understanding of visual culture, history, and the evolving role of design in contemporary society.

Combining a passion for aesthetics with entrepreneurial spirit, Maria founded a business specialising in antique clothing and jewellery, curating rare pieces for film, television, and private collectors. This experience in sourcing, storytelling, and digital communications laid the foundation for a transition into visual media and public engagement.

Her work capturing key moments in Parliament has been featured in major media outlets, including BBC News, The Guardian, The Telegraph, The Times, Financial Times, and more.
