We like Marianne. Smart, creative and a genuinely lovely person too.
If Cristian Staal’s forearm didn’t have so much reach, I would have approached Mrs O’Brien for a typographic tryst long ago.
Great talent and a sweet soul too.
Marianne is probably the smartest, nicest and best person I have worked with in this industry.
