Marysia Walker is a passionate creative who truly cares about her client partners, colleagues, project work, and community — and has designed or directed dozens of national award-winning pieces in print, advertising, direct, brand, and web(UI/UX).

Marysia is the Vice President and Creative Director at WORX — a nationally-recognized branding, digital, and marketing agency — where she oversees brand messaging, design strategy, and creative for many client partners. Her capabilities go beyond a single industry or marketing channel, having served as creative director and designer for top brands including PEZ, BiC, ESPN, Iron Mountain, Special Olympics, FedEx, and ASSA ABLOY. An unabashed fan of Michael Bolton, Marysia designed three of his album covers.

Marysia grew up in the Connecticut Valley, gravitating towards the arts, athletics, and computer technology. Later in college, as a fine arts major she discovered that a career in graphic design would allow her to blend her creative talents with technology.

Learning the business and strategic side of marketing, Marysia quickly ascended to leadership positions at every stop along her career path. A creative problem solver, she brings left- and right-brain thinking to every engagement, while enjoying mentoring members of the design team.

Social responsibility is important to her, and she is active in the design and local community — serving as a Board Member and mentor for AIGA CT and Co-Founder of the Emerging Leaders of United Way of Greater Waterbury.
