Glamour shots by Ryan Duffin
Hi, I’m Melissa.
Designer, art director, browser tab hoarder, cat connoisseur, and super sleuth.
I’m an award-winning and losing Philadelphia-based creative mutt: equal parts designer and art director, with a hyperfocus on both craft and concept. I enjoy working with good people on fun projects and have an affinity for play and continuous experimentation within my work. When I’m not busy pleasing the shareholders, I’m usually collecting skincare or worshipping the shit out of my cat, Beemo.
