About
First and foremost, I am a communication designer. I produce printed materials (collateral materials, logos & brand identities, magazine layouts, advertisements, invitations and signage), as well as web-based communication (websites, online newsletters and galleries). Beyond all that digital "in front of the screen" stuff, I enjoy creating original calendars, cards, and other handmade items that require taking a trip to the local paper or craft store.

Pronunciation
Much a who? Since you were likely wondering, my last name - Maciukenas - is pronounced MUCH-ah-KEN-nis (Note: sounds like much ah tennis). With an already lengthy maiden name of Bonacorsa, I gave up all hope of hyphenating when I got married, and since I would be one of only a few people in the world with the last name Maciukenas (besides the handful back in Lithuania), I've learned to deal and have become quite fond of the reactions I get when people try to pronounce it. I am keeping a tally of the number of people who ask me, "Is it Greek?"
