Israel Melendez
Graphic Designer & Illustrator
Hi, I am Israel, Graphic Designer and Illustrator with more than two decades of expertise in publication layout, art direction, and corporate identity across international markets. For the past seven years, I have established a strong track record in Washington, D.C., delivering high-stakes editorial design, bespoke corporate illustrations, and visual logistics for the World Bank’s major global initiatives and comprehensive annual reports. My work in the capital also includes providing corporate communication design and custom illustrations for Global Credit Union (IDB) and the GoodWeave Foundation. Across the United States, my experience extends to formatting digital content for ESPN Radio in Connecticut. Earlier in my career as a Freelancer, I directed branding, illustrations, and publication layouts for diverse sectors in Colombia, notably managing the print layout for the newspaper El Venezolano. Adept at balancing strict operational guidelines with creative innovation, I bring a sophisticated and precise approach to every project.
