After living in Amsterdam for 10 years and beginning her career working on brand campaigns at agencies, Melissa started at FUGA in 2015 and worked her way up from marketing coordinator to VP of Audience Strategy. For the last 3 years, she has been building an award-winning team working on global 360 marketing campaigns for independent artists with everything from audience research, media strategies and creative work to digital advertising and social media.
