Maria is an entrepreneur and brand builder with a foundation in civil law and over a decade of hands-on business experience. She graduated with a Bachelor’s in Civil Law, but her true education came from building brands in practice rather than theory.

Her journey began with Mon Bon, a confectionery brand she founded and grew into a recognized player in its niche. At Mon Bon, Maria managed everything from identity creation to a full rebranding and redesign - an experience that gave her an inside perspective on what makes a brand connect with customers.

After selling Mon Bon, she launched Cocodo Brando, a design and website development studio. For more than 10 years, Maria specialized in branding, website architecture, UX design, and digital builds, perfecting the craft of turning business needs into online experiences that convert.

With Brand Doula, Maria brings together her entrepreneurial background and creative eye. She focuses on branding, positioning, and user-centered website design, helping businesses move from scattered ideas to coherent, premium brand systems. Her strength is in recognizing the core of a founder’s vision and translating it into a brand that resonates with customers and investors alike.
