Checking in with Dr. Uta Meeder
Having grown up in a Stuttgart suburb, Dr. Uta Meeder ended up studying in Mannheim, where her fascination for numbers and economic processes led her to pursue a degree in Business Administration, but she never lost her love for art, for creativity, for design, and photography. With her design label MAOMI, she managed to successfully combine both passions.
