About Me

Jason Melgoza

In my teens, my sketchpad was my constant companion. Immersed in comic books, I was captivated by the art of illustrators like Jim Lee and Todd McFarlane. This passion led me to earn a degree in Art and Graphic Design from Fresno State.

In college, my interest in technology flourished. Discovering Jeffrey Zeldman's "Designing with Web Standards" ignited my curiosity in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, leading me to build my first website.

Today, I create intuitive, visually appealing products, blending creativity and technical skills to craft solutions that meet both aesthetic and functional goals.
