Meet the Team

Big Agency Energy.
Small Team Attention.

Buzz & Bloom is a boutique creative and marketing agency based in Waxhaw, NC, just outside Charlotte—and we’re small on purpose.

Founded by husband-and-wife team Melissa and André Yandow, Buzz & Bloom has grown into a mighty crew of strategists, designers, photographers, videographers, writers, and creatives who are really freaking good at what they do.
