About the artist: Maria Stuckey

Maria always wanted to work for Disney. Growing up in Florida, she frequented the Disney Parks with her family and watched Disney animated films constantly. This love for animation and theme parks motivated her to seek a degree in illustration from the Ringling College of Art and Design. After graduating in 2007, she interned with the Disney Design Group as a character artist, designing theme park merchandise, where she's been ever since.

Throughout her career at Disney, Maria has contributed to a multitude of exciting projects, including the opening line of merchandise for the Shanghai Disney Resort helping to develop and launch the Disney Park Wishables plush line. In addition to creating pins and cute and cuddly plush toys, she has had the opportunity to work on merchandise for new attractions, including Remy's Ratatouille Adventure in EPCOT, Avengers Campus at Disney California Adventure Park, Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge, Star Wars: Galactic Starcruiser at Walt Disney World Resort and the Guardians of the Galaxy: Cosmic Rewind attraction in EPCOT.

As a self-proclaimed ''Disney nerd,'' every day is truly a dream come true as she gets to immerse herself in the stories and characters that have played such a large part in her life. Maria is currently a product designer for the Marvel team at Disney Parks, Experiences and Products, assembling a whole team of cool products and designs featuring a universe of heroes.
