Career with Mel

I’m Mel, a UX Career Coach. I don’t do generic HR advice. I do clarity, confidence, and momentum. Your UX career can transform, open new doors, and take a bold turn with me. Together, we cut through the noise, rebuild momentum, and create a future you're excited about. I know what it’s like to face tough transitions — and come out stronger: 🧿 Promoted twice during my pregnancies. 🧿 Built a profitable business during my divorce. 🧿 Rebuilt my career across nine countries in two decades. Through 1:1 coaching, I help Senior UX professionals and career changers overcome blockers, strengthen their personal brands, communicate with more impact, and lead with confidence. You can work with me through flexible monthly subscriptions, 3- or 6-month coaching packs, one-off strategy sessions, or custom-built coaching programs. I also offer coaching and workshops for UX/Product teams in tech companies — helping teams grow, adapt, and thrive. Outside of UX, I’ve studied coaching, leadership, and communication at places like Harvard University, the University of Chicago, and Utrecht University. I hold an interdisciplinary degree in human development, combining clinical psychology, cultural anthropology, and evolutionary biology. Want to collaborate?
