Two new creative professionals join our team

With the addition of Melanie Oliva as our new associate creative director and Adam Tautkus as associate designer, the s2 creative team has both deepened its bench and broadened its capabilities.

Melanie brings 10 years of creative design experience in both traditional and online spaces. A self-confessed obsessive when it comes to design and advertising, she brings international experience to the mix, having worked for small and medium-sized agencies in both the U.S. and the Netherlands. Melanie’s experience includes developing award-winning collateral, websites, and direct mail pieces for clients such as Motorola, Komori America, and Cars.com.

Adam has freelanced with a variety of agencies in Chicago, ranging from s2 to J. Walter Thompson, and has established himself as a reliable creative talent. We’re glad to have his services full-time. Throughout his seven years of industry experience, Adam has immersed himself in all aspects of visual communications, building expertise in everything from designing logos and brochures to integrating new technologies into the design of online banner ads, microsites, and full websites.

At s2, we are very excited about the skills and talent that Melanie and Adam bring to our team—and ultimately to your projects.
