Mellen Vine Designs was founded in 2016 by Nanci Mellen Newell. She had a dream to preserve her family’s memories in a beautiful way. What started with designing a baby announcement in a trial version of Scrapbook Max quickly expanded to a full Adobe Suite, a Bachelor’s degree in Web Design and Development, and a successful business venture. She has striven to give back to the community that gave her a leg to stand on. Without the Pathway program through BYU Idaho and the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, Nanci may not have earned her degree at all, feeling overwhelmed with all the demands of life. With gratitude, she provides her services to both organizations free of charge.
