Maria Bates

I am a designer, art director, and teacher currently living in Melbourne, Australia. My interests range from design to arts and travel. I am also interested in politics and supporting causes that aid communities in need.

I have just begun my PhD journey, focusing on trauma recovery through communication design.

On the side, I run a small NFP that helps raise money for an at risk community in El Salvador through gift giving.
