Melanie has been married to her husband Eddie since 2014 and they share two beautiful children - ages 8 and 5. Growing her children up to be intelligent, well-mannered members of society is of great importance to Melanie. During her family time, Melanie enjoys consignment sale shopping, traveling, going to concerts, gardening, playing games and puzzles, being outdoors with her children and spending time with family and friends.
Recently, with the shortage of highly qualified teachers and the increased gap in student learning, Melanie has found a dire need for personalized educational services in order to help students be more successful in their educational journey. She is very passionate about building relationships with students, ENGAGING and MOTIVATING them to learn, while EMPOWERING them to continue learning and MENTORING them while they spread the importance of learning to others. In response to this critical need, EM² Learn was born.
