Originally a small-town girl with a laugh so distinctive she tried to change it (the change did not last). Melissa set out to make her mark. She never dreamed she would travel the globe meeting so many world leaders she's had the privilege to work with and lead. These varied experiences allow Melissa to bring her expansive knowledge of cross-cultural communication into her consulting business, which focuses on training and equipping teams in high-impact event management, protocol advising, executive coaching, and much more.
Melissa has been on the stage since she was two years old. With her larger-than-life personality, she leaves audiences feeling energized, inspired, focused, and confident. Taking lessons from her life (and sometimes bursting into song), Melissa is guaranteed to be one of the most uplifting, informative, and delightful sessions you experience.
