I'm Melissa, a Southern Californian native currently working as a UX Designer at Naked Development. Prior to Naked, I was a designer at A Parent Media Co.

At Naked, I collaborate with early-stage founders — turning big ideas into reality. I support clients through Product Discovery, Research & Design to craft intuitive, business-driven experiences for mobile and web. Here, I've had the pleasure of consulting across a range of industries, including real-estate, marketplaces, and social networking platforms.

Outside of work, you can find me learning how to cook with aromatics and training in musical rhythms of Salsa such as Rumba, Son, and Pachanga. 💃🏻

Reach out to me anytime, I'd love to be in touch :)
