Melissa Wickes
Melissa is a copywriter and content marketer with years of experience helping brands grow through her communications skills, storytelling, and background in journalism. She has brought her skillset to various industries including SaaS, B2B, publishing, and agencies. Melissa is proudest to have contributed to AdCouncil’s “It’s Up to You” COVID-19 vaccine campaign, described as the agency’s largest and most urgent communications effort in American history, and to have started a scholarship program for aspiring writers at her most recent employer. A lifelong New Yorker, Melissa is passionate about many things beyond writing—pasta (she even has an Instagram account dedicated to it @pastaperfectionist), the Yankees, dive bars, Taylor Swift, yoga, and her guitar. She lives in Brooklyn with her husband.
