Glamour shots by Ryan Duffin
Hi, I’m Melissa.
Designer, art director, browser tab hoarder, cat connoisseur, and super sleuth.
I am a Philadelphia-based creative mutt: equal parts designer and art director, with a hyper focus on both craft and concept. I enjoy making fun and sometimes meaningful things with good people and have an affinity for play and continuous experimentation within my work. When I’m not gazing into screens or increasing shareholder value, I’m busy collecting skincare or worshipping my cat Beemo.
