I'm Melanie. I like making pretty things for the internet.

My expertise is in creating visual and written communication to engage and inform audiences. My work intersects digital, graphic, and UI/UX design, web development, illustration, email/social media marketing, and copywriting. I’m also a grassroots activist.

Blending writing, photography, illustration, and personal style, I began a blog in 2009. In the ensuing years, this work grew into my wildest dreams, yielding opportunities like collaboration with H&M for the US launch of their e-commerce store, sponsorships from fashion staples like American Apparel, and press from publications including Glamour and Teen Vogue.

Once again, and with new resolve, this space continues to house my loves. I’m always pursuing curiosity and putting myself up to challenge. It’s important to me to have an outlet for my experiments in making and in wearing, and also sharing the inspiration and tips I’ve found along the way.

Forever a Miami girl, I live in Providence, Rhode Island, where I received my BFA in illustration from Rhode Island School of Design. I’m mama to a senior German Shepherd rescue, Mila, my ride-or-die and co-pilot for long road trips up and down the east coast.
