Early life
She grew up in San Anselmo, California. Her father worked as a publisher, and her mother worked as a Clinical Professor in Family Medicine at University of California, San Francisco.

Land Conservation
Mellin founded Art into Acres, a nonprofit for permanent large-scale land conservation in 2017, linking the two as "both art and conservation are based in legacy."[4][5] The initiative focuses on biodiversity and indigenous justice, supporting the creation of 22,000,000 acres of new protected areas with the participation of artists and art institutions.[6] She is quoted as saying "collaboration is a central tenet to sustainability."[7] She co-founded Conserve in 2018.[8][9]

Mellin supported the creation of Gallery Climate Coalition Los Angeles[12] in 2021. She co-founded Artists Commit, an artist environmental sustainability group,[13] in 2021. She co-founded Partners for Arts Climate Targets (PACT) in 2021.[14] In 2022, she received a Teiger Foundation grant to support the first carbon emissions calculations, drawdown and education for museum exhibitions, curators and artist studios.
