Melissa written infographics for us and have done some exceptional content writing for our clients
Kuzai Ajlaa
Melissa is a joy to work with -- pleasant, meets deadlines, and (most importantly) is reliable! I've had the pleasure of working with Melissa in a freelance capacity for the past year, and I hope it continues for much longer. Melissa also takes pride in her work, so you can bet on her putting in the research and delivering quality work. I couldn't ask for more in a writer.
