Hi! I’m Melissa—a multidisciplinary graphic designer hailing from Los Angeles and now proudly serving Central California. As a queer, non-binary person of color who is partially blind and hard of hearing, I approach design with a deep sense of empathy, a strong commitment to accessibility, and an unwavering belief in the power of inclusive storytelling.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of working with nonprofits, entertainment companies, and small businesses—helping them craft compelling identities, meaningful content, and memorable experiences. I thrive on projects that center community, culture, and purpose, and I’m passionate about creating work that resonates with real people.

Outside of client work, I actively volunteer my design skills for organizations that align with my values. I’ve had the honor of contributing to Dyke Day LA, AIGA Los Angeles, and serving as Creative Director for South LA Pride. These collaborations fuel my belief that design can be a powerful force for joy, community, and impact.
