Melissa McDonnell

We’re pleased to introduce our newest staff member, Melissa McDonnell, who’s now the project manager for the Ballroom Marfa Drive-In (here she is standing with the Drive-In model, designed by MOS). Melissa just finished up her Masters at Rice in Architecture, and after stints in New York, Houston, and Paris, she’s landed in Marfa with us. Awes.

Very Very Short Q & A with Melissa
Best exhibit you last saw: DIG at Storefront for Art and Architecture in NYC
Last record you purchased: Major Lazer
Favorite meal in Marfa: a margarita at Jett’s bar
Hometown: deep in the heart of Texas

Big welcome to Melissa, and more to come about our staff. And if you have questions about the drive-in project, or want to share your thoughts, feel free to email Melissa.
