Here I am at the Hague bridge in Norfolk, VA. No, its not a perm

Hi! I’m Melissa

I’m a designer, illustrator, and maker, currently based in Norfolk, VA with my husband, baby daughter and two cats. I am proud to be a military spouse and privileged to be working for myself no matter where the Navy sends us.

Since 2012, I’ve have the privilege of working with some amazing companies and clients. I’ve designed brochures, branding campaigns, large-scale print, and custom websites.

Want to get started on a project?

 

How am I different from other designers?

Reason 1:
I’m designing for you and your audience. I’m not designing to impress my peers, fancy magazines, or anyone else!

Let’s create a solution for your team that:

  • wows your clients

  • is appropriate for your industry

  • and is viable on the platform where it exists


Reason 2:
I’m really good at production. You can easily find a designer that makes something pretty. But when I design, I’m thinking about how it will print, launch, or interact. We’re talking chess not a jigsaw puzzle


Reason 3:
Big. Honest. Simple.
That’s my motto. Not just in design but in how I do business.

  • Big. The little things can change, the big ideas are what matter.

  • Honest. I will always be honest about the what, why, and how much

  • Simple. This doesn’t mean “easy”. It means no fuss, no excess
