Melanie received an MSW from The Ohio State University and has served her local community for over two decades successfully working with children, adolescents and adults. She has worked in Child Protective Services, Community Mental Health, Group Private Practice, a Cash Only Solo Private Practice as well as building an International Coaching Business.

Since 2007, Melanie has dedicated herself to helping business owners and entrepreneurs break though barriers that are keeping them stuck and frustrated.
Melanie’s unique areas of genius are:
- Seeing where you are stuck and getting in your own way of reaching the next level of success
- Presenting that information in a way that you can hear it so that you can begin to change it
- Breaking complicated concepts and strategies into easy actionable pieces
- Helping people see their own unique abilities and areas of brilliance so they can integrate them into their business planning and marketing strategies
