Collaborations

I’m Marianne, the mind behind Sapience.

I’m looking for connection — with people and projects that challenge, inspire, or stretch the boundaries of how we think and feel.

Guest Essays & Co-Writing

I’m open to soulful, witty guest pieces that align with Sapience’s tone and depth.
You don’t have to be a professional writer — just someone with original thought and emotional precision. Pitch me something strange and expansive.

Thought Partnership & Design Dialogue

I have a background in UX, coaching, IT product ecosystems, and systems mapping. I offer consulting mandates for projects that align with my values.
I’m especially interested in:

Tools that support relational or emotional health
Interfaces that reduce overwhelm and increase agency
Public systems or NGOs (like healthcare or education) that need a more humane, emotionally-aware logic

Publishing & Experiments

I’m open to joint pieces, experimental publishing formats, or co-authored manifestos with aligned individuals or organizations.
That might include:

Narrative frameworks or concept lexicons
Emotional culture pieces for change-focused orgs
Speculative fiction or future-mapping
Co-branded essays or slow-release collaborations

What I Bring

A rare combination of UX design, systems mapping, and emotional intelligence
Over 5 years of hands-on experience inside tech organizations — before age 25
Lived transition from IT consultant to systems-aware entrepreneur, exploring what today’s structures can't solve
Deep, self-driven learning in psychology, somatics, and futures thinking
Language that makes abstract systems personal — and makes personal experiences structurally visible

Let’s Talk

If you're building something grounded, intelligent, and emotionally ambitious — I’d love to hear about it.
