Melissa worked in youth development for about ten years before switching gears to marketing and promotions when turning thirty. Once she became a solo mom she wanted to find a way to bring her career knowledge home. Blogging was a perfect fit that allowed her to merge careers and motherhood. JustaBXmom was born from that merge in the fall of 2015. JustaBXmom has become a resource for all parents. Currently she is supporting families as a parenting and homeschool coach. Melissa is a Bronx-born resident that is excited to see and be part of The Bronx Is Blooming era in history.
