Hi there! I’m Melody Burdette.

I’m a nomadic storyteller, strategist, and enthusiastic creative Swiss Army knife.

Let’s make some magic together.

What can’t we do?

  • The secret weapon of any digital service or product lies in creating long-lasting, effective product strategy, brand strategy, and copy systems.

    I’ve been in the content design and strategy world for 10 years and absolutely love it. I’ve tackled high-ticket strategy problems for tech giants, led content design teams, customer education teams, developed style guides, written product, marketing, and brand copy, refreshed main flows—you name it.

    Let me help your company communicate better, and connect the dots.

  • Turning ideas and “that feeling” into reality is a superpower of mine. I’ve helped businesses big and small develop their differentiated and fresh look, feel, tone, and online presence. Could yours be next? Let’s talk.

  • Four years ago, I pulled the rip cord on a stable 9-5 life in San Francisco, converted a Ford Transit cargo van into a camper, and took off into the west—alone.

    My keynote speech “How to Design Your Life” offers audiences an entertaining, inspiring, and powerful solution to the age-old question: “How do I live my best life?”

    Through tales of wins and losses, hilarious adventures in Baja and tearful meltdowns in Idaho parking lots, I teach audiences how to identify what makes them feel truly alive—and share a tactical playbook for going after the things they want. Let me inspire your people.

  • Whether it’s adventure photography, lifestyle shots, or products in the wild—my photo style doesn’t happen at home. Let me help tell your story, or show people how your product or experience makes their life epic. Bonus points if it involves women in the outdoors!

  • Did I mention I live in a van and fly planes? I love creating with purpose-driven organizations to help people fall in love with the earth and the outdoors. Check out my Instagram here, and reach out about collaborating here.

I’m an all-in kind of creative, specializing storytelling in its many forms. Don’t see what you’re looking for, but think we might be great together anyways? Let’s start a conversation!

“Melody brings so much energy and personality to everything she does. We had such a wonderful and productive experience working with her!”
