Hi there, I’m Melissa Balkon, founder and lead designer at Strong Design Studios. In my 17+ years of experience, I’ve been blessed to be able to work with clients and projects of all shapes and sizes, but my passion is for smaller organizations and individuals who value professional design strategy and want a partner to work with one-on-one. I have an unnatural addiction to organization, love reading, and I’m known for my simple, timeless style. Learn more about what I’m into »
