Kelly Bazzle, Melco creator

Kelly Bazzle – Creative mompreneur and owner of Kelly Bazzle Creative

From graphic design to hosting a radio show, Kelly is a true Jill of all trades. Eager to build a creative career, she launched her own Etsy business to bring her ideas to life. Driven by a desire to work from home and be her own boss, she decided to expand her business by adding embroidery services. As a complete beginner, she needed a machine that was intuitive and easy to learn. That’s when she found the Melco SUMMIT—the perfect fit for her business. Now she’s taking her creativity on the road with her newest venture: the Crafted Camper, a mobile embroidery business.

Dani Simpson – Owner of custom luxury clothing brand The Arts of Dani

Dani is a passionate artist who launched her embroidery business straight out of college. She began with a single-needle machine, upgraded to a multi-needle, and soon found herself overwhelmed with orders. Realizing it was time to level up, Dani invested in a commercial machine—the Melco SUMMIT. Today, her business thrives as she creates custom luxury clothing, combining artistic vision with high-performance production.
