Personal Passions

In her free time, Mel loves to explore beaches, new restaurants, cheer on her favorite college sports teams, take advantage of random Groupon opportunities, and empower underrepresented communities. In fact, it was her love of generosity that drew her to Wheelhouse. Nelson Mandela’s quote ‘Deep down in every human heart there is mercy and generosity’ resonates strongly with Mel so the opportunity to live her values in her personal AND professional lives was one she could simply not pass up.
