I can help.

My name is Mel.

I’m an Oakland-based writer who’s covered everything from the best way to Kegel to the history and development of treasured local landmarks. When I tell you I can write anything that needs it, I’m not lying. I’ve ghost-written, SEO-optimized, and user-experienced my way into a vast and diverse writing portfolio.

I left the mountain peaks of Idaho to attend college in the Willamette Valley before diving head first into the everyday tumult that is the Bay Area. I am not from one place, so much as I’m an amalgamation of all the small worlds I’ve inhabited—which makes me fun at parties and killer at team problem-solving.

My latest adventure was as a staff writer at Digital Press, where I partnered with C-suite executives to craft thought leadership content in industries like blockchain, cyber security, health, and education. Now, I’m searching for my next opportunity—maybe it’s with you.
