“Melanie was my manager and teammate for about 2 years. She was the go-to person of the entire office; her knowledge base is a deep well that even the most seasoned employees turn to for answers. She’s brilliant and so good at everything she does. She thinks of every detail to make sure events go off without a hitch. She’s a fantastic manager, always approachable and happy to answer any questions, no matter how trivial. She cultivates a cohesive team dynamic, is protective of her team, and offers great advice for each person’s career development. Melanie delegates effectively, and gladly stays involved as needed so we can do our best work. Best of all, she is one of the kindest people I have ever worked with.”

Organized Firm's Fundraising and Food Packing Event
Feeding Children Everywhere
- 1 year 1 month
Children
I lead a fund raising team for PlanSource that raised $5,000 towards a food packing event. I was able to coordinate 60+ volunteers from our firm to join the other firms in our building. The Exchange Building Hunger Project resulted in over 30,000 meals being packaged. Half were delivered to the hungry in Haiti and the other half stayed in Central Florida to feed our local hungry.
