Karli was once just a Buffalo-area high school drawing student urged to sign up for her first graphic design course. After more than a decade in the advertising industry—spent working with such brands like Lilly, Moderna, and M&T Bank—she’s built those initial artistic aspirations into multifaceted creative capabilities now employed for clients at The Martin Group. Working with the likes of Rich Products and Sodexo Live!, the College of Saint Rose graduate’s award-winning array of design skills brings concepts alive and connects with audiences. When she’s not hard at work, Karli can be found treasure hunting at thrift stores or showing off her black belt in karate.
