I was in college studying computer animation when I came across graphic design (which I had never heard of); I fell in love with it, promptly switched my major, and got myself a bachelor's degree. I now have over two decades of experience. I also randomly experiment with other arts and crafts when the mood strikes. I am a Florida native who beats the heat by being a total night owl.
Here's what some of my clients have to say:
“Our team has worked with Melissa for many years and always produces beautiful branding for our clients at our hotels. Her vision for every design is meticulous and tailored for each site visit. Her designs never go unnoticed!”
“Melissa produces beautiful work. She has a great eye for layout and design, and her results are always a hit. She’s open to suggestions and changes (at least from me) and regards projects as a partnership between herself and her clients.”
“Thank you so much for the fantastic job you did designing our Let’s Move Salad Bars to California Schools Celebration Press Event program. You are the BEST designer I’ve worked with in 8 years at United Fresh! You made our lives so much easier and gave us a beautiful program.”
Some of the awesome companies that I have worked with:
BASF · Florida Fruit & Vegetable Association · Gaylord Palms · Hilton · KUONI · Montgomery College · RCMA · Ronald McDonald House Charities · United Fresh Produce Association · Waldorf-Astoria
