The story behind the mind of Mia
Hi, I'm Mia Funk. I graduated from the Visual College of Art and Design in Vancouver, BC in March 2020. Upon completion of my studies I received a Diploma in Human Centred Design. While living in Vancouver post-graduation I began working as a freelance designer from designing beer labels to merch to advertising. Upon returning to my hometown of Vanderhoof in early 2021, I became the lead graphic designer at Streamline Signs & Graphics. I created independently in my off-time, taking on projects that inspired and challenged me. In February of 2025 I officially began my dream of starting my own design company, Mind of Mia.
When it comes to design, my passions lie in visual identity, illustration and photography. I enjoy watercolour painting, camping, paddleboarding on the many lakes surrounding my area, tending to my many houseplants (plant mom life) and spoiling my executive furry assistant, Oreo (my dog).
