Designer. Developer. Maker.
Creative technologist.
Hey there! I’m Melody, a full-stack product designer based in New York City 🍎.
🔧 I’ve always loved creating at the intersection of visual art and tech, spending hours in my high school makerspace tinkering with 3D printing, prototyping, and figuring out how things work (and occasionally, how they break).
💡 In college, I took that curiosity to the next level by majoring in a selective 30-person cohort-based program blending computer science, business entrepreneurship, and design at the University of Southern California, an immersive crash course in future-forward innovation. My makerspace got bigger, now filled with real-world problems and businesses ideas to solve them, where I honed my ability to ideate systematically and build intentionally.
🪄 Now, a year into designing full-time, I work with AI-powered workflows, emerging technologies, and real users. I get to carry all of my past experiences with me, still tinkering, problem-solving, and building delightful experiences with impact.
