Melissa is a fifth-generation Californian. She grew up in the Fair Oaks area of Sacramento and in 1976 married an officer in the Air Force, which gave her the opportunity to travel and live in Europe, Philippines and other states. In 1989 she and her family moved home, Folsom, where she raised her children and started her career in the real estate industry with a title company.

Melissa decided in April of 2001, after her children were off to the Marines and living on their own, that it was time to go after her dream of selling real estate.
