Melody Jones is a numbers person with an adventurous streak. She started with an engineering degree, traded it in for an MBA, and added an MA in International Studies to fuel her love of languages, travel, and global perspective. She thrives on helping bold, mission-driven companies grow—blending technical insight with financial expertise to guide them through fundraising, scaling, and big strategic moves. Melody has worked with boards, investors, and executive teams across technology, climate, and consumer sectors to turn ambitious visions into lasting growth. At Seatrec, she’s especially energized by advancing the mission of harnessing renewable energy from the ocean to power critical climate and ocean science.

When she’s not working, you’ll likely find Melody outside. Skiing fresh powder, trekking through the Sierras or Alps, or being around water are her favorite ways to reset. The ocean is her greatest constant—she’s been known to dive, SUP, surf, sail, swim, cruise, stare at, and even fly over oceans around the globe.
