“Melanie is a strong leader and knows how important the initial kick-off of a project can be and how all disciplines are needed at the table. That said, she brings a wealth of knowledge and diverse skillsets to the table so less parties need to be involved, saving the client and the project money (which they can add to the project to make it a more robust design if they prefer)..”
