Hi, I’m Tristine Marie

I'm a graphic designer and marketing specialist based in Washington State with a passion for building thoughtful, memorable visual experiences.

My work spans brand identity, campaign design, social media, print collateral, digital marketing, and visual storytelling. I enjoy taking ideas that may initially feel complicated or undefined and transforming them into cohesive design systems that feel clear, intentional, and distinctly human.

Professionally, I work as a Marketing Specialist supporting more than 60 real estate professionals across Kitsap County. My role combines graphic design, branding, marketing strategy, social media, print production, and day-to-day creative problem-solving. Working with such a wide range of clients has taught me how to manage competing priorities, communicate with stakeholders, work within established brand systems, and deliver creative work on deadline.

Alongside my full-time work, I've collaborated with local businesses and organizations on branding, graphic design, and marketing projects through freelance and contract work.

Designer by profession. Artist at heart.

The woman is smiling and focused on placing the artwork. The gallery space has a black and white decor with a clock on the wall and other art and items on display.

Outside of my professional design work, illustration gives me a space to experiment and create without rules. My artwork is influenced by bold color, patterns, graffiti, kawaii culture, and folk art, and I've also explored storytelling through independently created mini zines.

That curiosity carries into my professional work. I'm always interested in learning new tools, exploring new ideas, and finding better ways to communicate visually.

When I'm not designing, you'll probably find me drawing, working on a zine, running, exploring the Pacific Northwest, drinking coffee, or hanging out with my dogs and spending quality time with my husband.

Let's create something meaningful.

I'm currently interested in opportunities where I can continue growing as a graphic and brand designer while collaborating with a creative team.
