Melissa Stafford-Woodruff


Creative Director


As Creative Director at DG+, Melissa leads the creative team in developing innovative branding, print and web design, user experience, video content, and more for leading companies across the cleantech industry. With a passion for the arts and a background as a curator and gallery director, Melissa brings a unique perspective to her work, seamlessly blending creativity and strategy. Melissa's fascination with the intersection of art, design, code, anthropology, sociology, and psychology fuels her desire to create meaningful connections between brands and their audiences. In her role as Creative Director, she guides the creative vision and strategy for DG+, ensuring that every project delivers exceptional results for clients while pushing the boundaries of what's possible in the world of design.

Melissa lives in Upstate New York with her partner Eric, their two children, and a menagerie of needy and much-loved pets. Her favorite places are museums, bookshops, and any number of hikes in the Adirondacks, but preferably NOT during the winter (whilst she agrees that the snow is pretty, she'd much rather look at it from afar, sitting by a nice warm fireplace indoors).
