Melvin is so incredibly creative. I had the privilege of working with him at Riversand -- he was on my team and I appreciated his ability to come up with new design ideas...unique and on-point all at once. More importantly, his work translated to business value. He understood the audience, our target markets, and translated his creativity to driving the right outcomes. It's one thing to deliver cool stuff. It's another to deliver work that drives value. Melvin does that. And he's a great guy overall. I enjoyed working with him (and would do so again).

My session with Melvin was definitely an eye-opener for me. His mentorship was just too good. He could identify the exact hurdles I was facing and helped me overcome them. And also gave me a thorough profile review and clear-cut directions to follow. He is very knowledgeable and has been in the industry for a long time. Melvin will be the best mentor who can guide you.

Melvin is one of those professionals who take great pride in what he does, and things are no different when it comes to mentoring as well. With his systematic and unconditional approach to mentorship, he is hands-down one of the best mentors one can have in the NFT space and design in general. As a mentor myself, I believe mentoring cannot be limited to a single or a couple of sessions, it's a long-term association and is just like building a healthy relationship.

Melvin plays the instrumental role in building the design capabilities of AlignMinds. Apart from being a top-notch designer who is highly organized and is an absolute pleasure to work with, I find Melvin so valuable because of his ability to quickly grasp the design preferences and ideas of our clients and being able to translate them into designs that far exceed their expectations. He is very proactive and is an excellent team player.

There are folks who can read between the lines and then there are the few who can recognize what isn't being said and make the story whole. Melvin has this rare ability - His work for us has wide-ranging implications from how branding and brand perception are conveyed and understood by the market but also the details and follow-through that then need to translate into everyday implications and usage of the design and the persona it represents.

Melvin is an amazing person - both personally and professionally. Melvin is also proof that regardless of your background, one can achieve greatness once you put your mind to it. Melvin joined us as one of our early team members. He possessed a rare combination of skill, humility and team-spirit. He was able to single-handedly build our UI/UX team, by attracting and engaging the right talent, and by creating a great brand.
