Hi, I'm Melany!

I've been passionate about content creation since I was 10 years old, long before I even knew what a "content creator" was. I'd pick up any camera I could find and just start talking. Over time, my phone stopped being a device and started feeling like my best friend.

I'm a lifestyle content creator and a proud Latina from Chicago. Representing my culture is everything to me, whether that's bringing my parents on camera, sharing our food, or just existing as myself every day. (My audience might actually love my mom more than they love me, and honestly? Same.)

My goal is to turn this passion into a full-time career. And I'm already on my way.

Hangry's TikTok

Social Media Manager & Content Creator · 2022 – Present

Hangry's Restaurant

My family owns Hangry's, a local Chicago restaurant. Social media is something I genuinely love, so stepping in to help build their presence felt natural. They've grown so much since then, and I still manage the account when I'm home on weekends.

University Partnership
Spring Jam: UIUC's Annual Concert Event

Selected as the lead actress to promote Spring Jam, UIUC's annual concert event. The university came to me. I filmed, I showed up, and the video went viral, helping drive awareness and scale attendance for the performing artist. The content was featured across the Illinois Union, Illinois Board, and State Farm Center, reaching the entire UIUC student body.
