Maggie Tsao is a graphic designer, typographer, photographer, model and student at Parsons in New York City, where she was born. She fares pretty well at her several vocations, which she accredits to working hard. Some endeavors might be avocations, but as she's a perfectionist, it's uncertain if one or another is merely a hobby. She intends to use these skills to gain employment (if not self-employed) at a hip, creative office, thus skirting the unpleasant seas of blue and grey suits. She might seem reserved, but she's an exceptional communicator and what she writes and says is typically very lucid and compact. She claims to not be very good at math, but this is not too much a concern since math is for mathematicians, (which she incidentally is not.) Maggie enjoys books, movies, music, the Internet, and other present and future forms of media. She has a cat named Milo with a famous pink Pantone swatch nose.

Maggie is quite the enigma. there are times where she can be condescending towards you, but other moments where her friendly
behavior and giving attitude make you feel good about life.

—Jon Lee


Maggie doesn't like people in her bubble and she has a very large bubble. So as a precaution do not get too close, she will feel uncomfortable (or get very close just to freak her out). She currently has an obsession with blogs, it is her life. Her fear of children is sometimes shocking, but on most levels I agree with her. Maggie is a great listener, she is always there when I need to whine about life and that's why I love her! (well, among other things.)
