From El Palacio De Los Jugos to Flanigans to Books

From El Palacio De Los Jugos to Flanigans to Books and Books, @uminteractive MFA alumna Melissa Gutierrez (@westofchester) is known for her uniquely #Miami prints! 🖼 Melissa recently spoke to @WLRN where she shared her #illustration journey of capturing her hometown and childhood memories. 🌴 "It almost feels like the work that I'm making is serving as like a communal yearbook” she said.

When Melissa isn’t drawing nostalgic scenes of #SouthFlorida, she works as a Senior #UX Designer at @Adobe in New York.

Shoutout to @biancamarinkovic who graduates today with her MA in #PublicRelations! During her time at #umiami Bianca says she was surround by professors that truly cared about students and their success.
