Meet Melissa

I'm a multipotentialite! That's a fancy way of saying that I am well versed in multiple disciplines and fully embrace my many passions. I am a Certified Coach, Entrepreneur, HR Consultant, LinkedIn Strategist, Mindfulness Facilitator, Trainer, Speaker, and Sommelier. And I'm sure my list will continue to grow!

I help clients uncover and follow their passions to become who they truly want to be. When we chase our greatest desires — and find the synergies between them — we get to dream big and live happier, more authentic lives.

I'm a passionate connector who loves building trusted relationships and adding value in unexpected ways. As someone who chases her own dreams — big and small — I thrive on inspiring big dreams in others and helping people recognize their fullest potential, personally and professionally.

Everyone Needs a Cheerleader!

On my podcast with Chris Heine, I dig into mindfulness and why cultivating self-awareness matters. I share how I help individuals and teams grow by focusing on individual leadership — because amazing things happen when you invest in yourself, surround yourself with people who help you thrive, and recognize the progress you're making along the way.
