Top SchoolMelinda Russell is an elementary school teacher and full-stack web developer based in Lakewood, Ohio, who blends eight years of classroom leadership with modern web development skills. She designs back-end systems that integrate databases and APIs while applying an art-historical eye to craft engaging, aesthetically thoughtful front ends. Comfortable in collaborative teams, she leverages classroom management, curriculum design, and project coordination experience to communicate clearly across technical and non-technical stakeholders. Her background in classics and art history informs a human-centered approach to UX and problem framing that few developers bring to technical roles.
