Melaine Ireland

Melaine was born and raised in the foothills of North Carolina in a town with only a caution light. Melaine rolled out of the mountains and into the city to attend the University of North Carolina at Charlotte in 2013. After completion of a Masters in Architecture they came to WMBA to work in 2019, and has steadily been absorbing all things healthcare. Outside the office Melaine loves to spend time with family and friends. They can often be found in the backyard grilling/smoking all types of foods, or playing with their dog and cats. When not outside they can be found tinkering around with tech and making lamps or led long exposure paint sticks.

“I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Melaine for four years both in a professional and scholastic capacity. During that time, Melaine has shown consistent creativity, attention to detail and dedication when approaching each project. Every aspect of the design process is treated with the utmost thoroughness and care. On a personal level, Melaine is incredibly funny, playful, has a passion for cooking and making delicious cocktails for friends (pre-COVID), and loving their fur babies. We are fortunate to have Melaine on the WMBA Team.”
