ABOUT MELANIEArtist, to Graphic Designer, to Photographer...While I was studying art at Western Washington University, my graphic design professor recommended me for a job at the university newspaper, designing ads and laying out the paper on the computer. Little did I know, that was the start of a decade long career as a graphic designer in the newspaper industry.
As a production designer at the Sequim Gazette, I designed special visitor guides with a local flair. To illustrate the pages, I began honing my skills as a photographer. I contributed photos to the covers of many of our publications, including our Living on the Peninsula magazine. In my role as Marketing Coordinator for Windermere Real Estate in Sequim, I added videography to my skill set. I use iMovie, to stitch together the scenes of each video tour, adding music and captions. The videos are a great way for businesses to connect with their audience on social media. Or for friends and family to remember a special event for years to come. I have always loved creating visual art, be it a painting, a design, or a video. I hope that you can see that joy come through in my work. |
