Docuseries
Montreal This is one of Design Shopp’s personal projects: a new docuseries in-the-making, highlighting community heroes, often the ones not seen or heard of, who make a genuine difference in people’s lives. We’re currently working on our pilot episode, recently filmed on the South Side of Chicago.

John Abbott CollegeOur vice president, Melissa, teaches design seminars and career workshops to future graduates from design, marketing and web programs. These workshops are designed to prepare students for their interviews, the workforce, or starting a new business. Her experience being a young entrepreneur when she co-founded Design Shopp, with no business experience and very little mentoring, has been an important inspiration for these workshops.
