She graduated from the University of Hawaii with a communications degree, pursuing work as an associate producer for an ABC affiliate television station in Hawaii and as an account executive for the Pacific’s largest public relations firm. Her fine marketing, customer service and organizational skills have been a great asset throughout her career and followed her to Paris, where she studied French at the Sorbonne and handled public relations for a top Parisian designer. While she gives her all to her clientele, Melanie also gives to her community as a Young Advocate for the Human Rights Watch, a volunteer for New York Cares, and an active member of the Junior League.
