Welcome to Curious Commerce!

I’m so glad you’re here. I’m a consumer brand enthusiast and founder. My day job is leading product marketing at Estée Lauder. On an weekly-ish basis (heavy on the ish), I share coverage on:

Trends in consumer and retail

Strategy to support a deeper understanding of the consumer landscape

A brief introduction…

I’m Melina, a founder and product marketer with experience at brands like Estée Lauder and Pandora Jewelry. I started my career at McKinsey and gained an appreciation for making business strategy accessible and fun. I started a DTC womenswear brand, Keaton, with the goal of simplifying office dressing for the next generation of professional women.

Now back in the corporate world, I enjoy sharing my observations on consumer trends shaping how we shop, the intersection of technology and consumer, and frameworks for making sense of it all.

I hope you find these ideas as interesting and useful as I do! I’d love to learn more about you and what drives your interest in Curious Commerce. Feel free to reach out: email | LinkedIn.
