After losing her own parents at a young age, preserving her family history and ties to the past became even more important to Melissa. She and her siblings struggled to find many details of their past and longed for stories told in their parents' own words.
Melissa believes the Russian proverb that says, “You live as long as you are remembered,” so as a mom she decided to do a better job building the bridge between generations for her children by documenting family stories to pass along to her future generations.
Melissa uses her talents as a teacher, counselor, writer, and coach to help others do the same. Her mission is to inspire and support others as they preserve their past through the power of personal stories.
