Having grown up in Panama City, Florida, Melissa was grateful to return to the Sunshine State after attending school in Mississippi. Graduating from Mississippi State University with her Bachelor of Business Administration in Marketing with a concentration in International Business and her Bachelor of Arts in Spanish in 2021, Melissa now serves the Northwest Florida community as the Marketing and Communications Manager for the Pensacola State College Foundation.
In her role at the PSC Foundation, Melissa manages the Foundation’s online presence through its various social media pages and website, captures and shares key moments throughout the year through photography and articles written for its monthly eNews, and connects the greater community to the mission of the Foundation through print and digital media storytelling. Valuing the importance of both philanthropy and service, she looks forward to continuing to share the inspiring impact that donors have on PSC, its students, and programs.
In her free time, Melissa enjoys making memories with her loved ones, family, and friends. Her hobbies include baking, cooking, painting, spending time outdoors, and traveling.
