What Clients Say:
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Very quick at responding to feedback. Very high-quality output at an affordable price point."
Dr. Kris Verburgh, MD Chief Scientific Officer
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"I hired this designer for a how-to/guided journal I had written and had very little vision for how I wanted it to look. He was a dream to work with--his first draft created a great overall look for the book and added nice details to fill in places like title pages that I hadn't thought about. His professionalism really showed in how little direction he needed to lay out hundreds of pages that weren't straight text--sidebars, added lines, etc--it made the process so easy for me. Highly recommended!"
Cara Kalf, College Essay Coaching
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Melvyn's work is exceptional. His communication skills are brilliant and you can really sense that he cares about your vision and your idea. I couldn't have been happier with the end result. I will contact him again once my next book is finished. This guy is gold. I will recommend him to everyone that wants to write a book. Uncomplicated, masterful designer, and very very kind."
Lorin Krenn, bestselling author, and teacher of Deep Intimacy
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
"Super service - very thorough. Melvyn is super helpful. He went above and beyond. The quality of work was incredibly good. Delighted. Thank you, Melvyn."
Maz Farrelly, Media Specialist
I have worked for local and international companies/brands and startups such as; Coca-Cola Company, Philip Morris International, Data Créditos, Cedar Rose International Services Ltd, Zurich Insurance, Kissmetrics, Mammoth Growth, Ediciones SM, Leo Burnett, and hundreds of publishing companies and independent authors.
