Melissa has always worked with writers. She started her career with a brief stint at a local newspaper before pursuing a career in education. Since then, Melissa has spent the last 18 years continuing to help writers, not as an educator, but as their copy editor. Copy editing removed the barriers of the classroom and allowed her to extend her services to a broader audience of ESL students, graduate students and professionals, marketing agencies, nonprofits and more.
