Maria Von Losch is an author, entrepreneur and brand strategist with more than 20 years of experience spanning media, fashion and branding. She began her career in public relations and media before becoming a fashion stylist, blogger and early influencer, back when blogging was considered a hobby and social media was barely a thing.
Known for her eye for aesthetics and instinct for storytelling, Maria has covered red carpet fashion and shared style commentary on morning television. She has also built digital platforms and creative businesses rooted in culture, connection and self expression.
Her nonfiction book, *The Venus Effect*, explores the relationship between personal style, identity and the way women show up in the world. Through her own journey of reinvention, Maria invites women to approach midlife as an opportunity to redefine themselves and create a life that reflects who they are becoming.
Maria is also writing her first fiction novel, a provocative exploration of power, desire and the ways women reclaim themselves in midlife. On Savvynista, she publishes thought provoking essays about identity and personal evolution, often exploring the questions women think about privately but rarely discuss openly.
When she isn't writing, Maria is usually discovering a new fragrance, immersed in fashion or art, or exploring emerging technology for her next creative venture.
She lives in San Diego, California, with her husband and two cats.
