Well, Hai!

My name is Melissa, but most people know me as Mel.

I'm a graphic designer and photographer based in Orlando, Florida. I’m an alumnus of University of Central Florida, and I love anything that can be printed and given a physical form: packaging, booklets, posters, stickers, signage, anything that breathes life into a brand and story. If it can be printed and physically felt, I’m a sucker for it.

My current position is as the Creative Content Manager at UCP of Central Florida, a non-profit that operates a Charter School Consortium in Central Florida. My role is to assist our non-profit side with fundraiser branding and event execution and the charter side with enrollment marketing and recruitment. There’s a healthy overlap between managing agency branding and charter messaging.

Outside of designing, I'm an enthusiastic soccer player and rollerskater. I used to play competitively in my younger days, but now I play with friends for fun.

If you're interested in getting together to talk design or make a friend in Orlando, let’s connect!
