Melissa Nilsson
I'm a digital designer and maker of things. Born and raised in the Washington, DC area, I worked and studied in DC and San Francisco before moving to Stockholm in 2011.
I am currently Head of Design in eCom at Nexi Group, developing design strategy within e-commerce.
Over the course of a decade working as a digital designer at the boutique agency Perfect Fools, I produced wildly popular mobile apps, web campaigns, print collateral and brand building for clients ranging from multinational corporations to nonprofits and independent startups. I’ve been responsible for art direction, concept development, web design, illustration, animation, and pre-press production.
In my spare time, I am a constant learner and skills collector, perpetually keeping my hands busy. I make handmade stoneware mugs under the moniker Stoneware Weekend. My Noodley Arms illustrations are now available on tshirts. I paint, knit, sew, and dabble in building guitars.
