Born in Minnesota and having lived overseas in Australia, Melissa brings a broad perspective to health and wellness.

With a background in nutrition and personal training, Melissa is passionate about helping others live healthier, more vibrant lives and feel connected to their bodies. She believes aging is not about decline, it’s about cultivating vitality through intentional choices that enhance quality of life at every age. Her mission is to redefine what it means to age well by empowering others to make choices today  that set the foundation for health and vitality for years to come.  Her motto is that we are not just stretching to feel better in the moment, we are stretching towards a better quality of life. 

Outside the studio, she rejuvenates in nature, kayaking, swimming, and enjoying time in the ocean.
