What’s your role and how long have you been at Innovative?
I’m the project coordinator now, but I started off in the sales department. I’m about to make three years at Innovative — time flies!
What’s your favorite memory from Innovative?
I don’t know if I can pinpoint a specific memory, but I really enjoy listening and laughing with the sales team on Thursdays. Some of my favorite days have been when it’s just raining or snowing and I have a hot cup of coffee nearby.
What’s the most challenging part of your job?
If you asked me that when I first started at this role, I would have said generating weekly reports. Now it’s organizing, sorting and manipulating all kinds of lists to make the data digestible for others to read. Depending on how the original data is presented it can take a while, sometimes days, to organize. But ask me again in a few months and it’ll probably be something different.
When you’re not working, what can you be found doing?
I love hosting! It could be dinners or just snacks and a movie night, I love being around friends. In my down time I’m either reading, learning Python, building computers, watching documentaries with my cat, working on an art project, gaming, volunteering or some sort of self-care routine.
What movie, television or book character represents you the best?
I vibe with the humor and coffee addiction of Lorelai Gilmore (Gilmore Girls), but I’m a lot like Jo March (Little Women), Elizabeth Bennet (Pride and Prejudice) and Katniss Everdeen (The Hunger Games).
What’s a song you currently have on repeat?
on purpose by Ni/Co

“Melanie has been an awesome addition to Innovative! She’s organized and attentive to detail — a master with spreadsheets and data!
What I love about Melanie most is that she brings the fun and camaraderie to our team meetings. In a professional environment, we can easily overlook that sometimes, but she doesn’t let us. Her chill and easygoing disposition adds a brightness to every interaction.
So glad to have her as part of our team!”
