The child of two architects, Simone Mariano grew up in an environment that celebrated design. Her own creative talent was first discovered at the age of five when she was asked to draw a pepper shaker on a restaurant napkin, and the amazing result was executed in full 3-D perspective. After years of honing that ability, Simone is now looking forward to applying her illustration and modeling skills to as many Keepsake Ornaments as she can!
