Mari Andrew

Presenter

Mari Andrew is a New York Times bestselling author, artist, and speaker who has gained an international reputation for joyfully philosophical illustrations and essays that meander between deep and light, bitter and sweet. Mari is in the business of paying attention, and her work reflects her specific observations turned into universal life lessons. While she didn’t formally study writing or art, her life's path—filled with stints in food service and retail, working multiple jobs in foreign countries, profound grief and heartbreak, mental health struggles, and lots of solo travels—prepared her for a lifetime of appreciating and documenting each moment with equal attentiveness. Mari currently lives in New York City which is where she finds both creative spark and inner peace.
