Who Is Adam Meller?

Daringly creative. Undoubtedly witty. Devilishly handsome.

And now, some other definitely true facts about me:

I wasn’t named after the first man on Earth. My mom named me after Adam Walsh, son of John Walsh (host of America’s Most Wanted), who was kidnapped and murdered in the early 80s. Nice, huh?

I was born on April Fool’s Day in 1985. When the doctor told my mom it was boy, she thought he was joking because she was hoping for a girl. You could say I’ve been disappointing her since the day I was born.

But I was a cute kid back then.

One of my nicknames is Maverick. Sarah Palin nearly ruined it for me.

I’ve been to the International Advertising Festival in Cannes, but not because I’ve won a Gold Lion (yet).

I’ve been deer hunting in Northern Michigan since I was 13. In 20+ years, I’ve only shot at one deer (I missed), because I’m usually having the best outdoor nap. I have gutted one though. My main reason for going every year is to spend quality time with the fam.

I got my first tattoo at 25.

I started my career as a graphic designer in college, and actually won Graphic Artist of the Year at The State News. I still enjoy my time in Adobe (read: creating memes), but felt that the written word came more naturally to me than the Wacom tablet.

I lived in Jackson, Michigan for three years. The Michigan State Prison and a resident superhero both happen to be located there.

I worked at RjM, which was once known as RJ Michaels, Inc. Rebranding that agency and helping it shed its conservative shell was my swan song.

I can teach you how to fold a fitted sheet.

My favorite band is KISS. I’ve seen them live five times. But no, I’ve never painted my face.

I’m a device-agnostic tech nerd that’s been playing video games for more than 25 years. I own two Xbox Series Xes, PS4 Pro, Nintendo Switch, iPhone, iPad Pro, several MacBook Pros, and built my own PC (I’m due to build another soon). Now that it’s entered the pop culture lexicon, I’m ok with emerging from the basement and calling all of this a “hobby.”

Contrary to what lot of people I’ve met suggest, I’ve never done voice-acting work professionally.

I can perform wedding ceremonies as an Ordained Minister of the Church of the Latter-Day Dude.
