Maria aka Nightwalker_MC, was born and raised in Cyprus. Maria’s journey as an artist began at a young age, fueled by a deep passion for storytelling and creativity. Inspired by the rich worlds of video games and animated series, she quickly became captivated by the art of bringing stories to life through concept art, character design, and illustration. This fascination led her to continuously push her artistic skills and evolve her style, striving to create visuals that resonate emotionally and tell compelling stories.

She pursued her passion academically, earning a degree in Applied Multimedia Arts from the University of Nicosia, Cyprus, with a Minor in Graphic Design and Illustration. This diverse education laid the foundation for a dynamic career that spans across different creative fields. With over eight years of experience in Multimedia Design and E-learning gamification, she specializes in creating engaging media materials for training and mini-games on social media platforms. Her ability to design interactive and immersive experiences has made her a sought-after designer for projects that require creativity and innovation.

Maria has also worked with podcast creators and Twitch streamers, helping them craft unique visual identities that capture their personalities and connect with their audiences. She takes pride in creating visuals that not only look great but also enhance the overall narrative and engagement of the content.

During her time in the United States, Maria worked as a Senior Digital Designer for production studios and E-learning companies, where she led visual design projects and developed intuitive UI interfaces that elevate user experiences. Her work there included collaborations with renowned companies, and creative projects that required both strong artistic vision and technical expertise.

Driven by a love for both art and technology, Maria continues to push the boundaries of her creativity. She believes that every project is an opportunity to learn something new and tell a story that leaves a lasting impact. Whether she’s designing a character, an interface, or a full-fledged multimedia experience, Maria’s goal is always the same: to create art that inspires, engages, and tells a story.

When she’s not designing, Maria enjoys diving into new video games, sketching out fresh ideas, while also training as a competitive athlete in both Crossfit and Powerlifting.

Maria Loizou,  studied Multimedia and Graphic Arts, but she loves illustration, character design, cats and chocolates, not necessarily in that order. She can keep playing arcade games for all eternity, which is not a very bad idea, since she believes aliens will one day invade the earth. She also claims she can prove it.
