Y’ello!

I’m Melissa Johnston, a graphic designer since 2005. I opened my first studio in 2012 and, in 2024, shifted to a fully virtual studio, now operating from my home in Cypress County. I love the flexibility and freedom that come with being an entrepreneur.

I’ve been fortunate to spend a few hours per week at Medicine Hat College in the Art & Design department, helping to educate the next generation of graphic designers.

When I’m not working, I can be found reading, gardening, painting, crocheting, camping, or hanging out with my little family. My absolute favorite TV show is Lost, so it’s probably no surprise that I love a good tropical vacation.
