Hey, it’s me, Melissa! I’m a Toronto based Illustrator and Designer. I’m a Visual Storyteller who loves to create vibrant, warm, fun and whimsical artwork. I’ve had the pleasure of working on some pretty creative projects and with some amazing clients.

Some lovely folks I’ve worked with: The University of Manitoba, Canadian Geographic Magazine, Cottage Life Magazine, Pacific Parklands Foundation, Chester Municipality, Trinity College School

Here’s a little more about my creative process:

Explore & Discover

I believe in thoughtful planning before tackling any kind of project. The process will start with a consultation where we can dig deep into the details of your project, and discover what you’re really looking to communicate. I will take our discoveries, and your ideas and do thorough research and brainstorming.

Brainstorm & Create

Once I have a clear direction, I will create sketches/digital mockups of design options. With your input, I will tweak and polish the design to ensure you are thrilled with the final result!

Take Flight

The project will wrap up with me providing all necessary assets in order for you to finalize your project.

“Melissa was a pleasure to work with on the map for our foundation. She was efficient and easy to communicate with, gave exceptional design expertise and graciously handled changes to the project as they came. We highly recommend working with Melissa if you are looking for a personalized experience.”
