Meet Maria Malik, our Digital Content Creator! As a working student supporting our digital communication efforts, Maria brings fresh energy, creativity, and a deep passion for digital storytelling to our growing brand.
Maria is currently pursuing her master’s degree in Media and Communication Science at TU Ilmenau. Her journey into content creation began during her bachelor’s studies, where she experimented with video editing and managed Instagram pages for university clubs. This hands-on experience not only sparked her interest in social media but also laid the foundation for her career in digital communication. Maria also gained valuable experience as a Social Media Analyst, honing her skills in online engagement and content strategy.
At Brandenburg Labs, Maria thrives in a role that allows her to express her creativity, whether she’s editing reels, planning campaigns, or brainstorming fresh content formats. She enjoys the dynamic, collaborative work environment and the freedom to experiment with new ideas that connect our technology to a wider audience.
Maria combines creativity with strong organizational skills and a collaborative approach. She brings structure and clarity to her projects while embracing teamwork.
Outside of work, she enjoys baking and cooking, sketching design inspirations she finds on Pinterest, and learning new editing tools to sharpen her skills. Once an avid reader, she still finds time to turn to books for creative inspiration.
Looking ahead, Maria’s long-term goals include starting and growing her own social media agency, collaborating with brands that prioritize social good and inclusivity, and mastering AR/VR storytelling to create immersive digital experiences.
Fun fact: Maria is fluent in memes and was 15 when she discovered that Hannah Montana and Miley Cyrus are the same person, an unforgettable pop culture moment she still laughs about.
