After two decades on Wall Street at the leading investment banks in New York City, Melissa discovered that wealth, status and success weren’t enough. She retired young determined to find genuine fulfillment.


Outside of corporate culture, Melissa was finally able to discover her true self.

The catalyst for her transformation was the study of yoga, Chinese moving meditation called qigong and life-coaching techniques. Melissa immersed herself in these teachings and discovered that the body-mind connection is the platform to finding lasting happiness and fulfillment. For more than twenty years, Melissa has been sharing this mindful knowledge and empowering others to live their best life.


Melissa has reached the highest level of study and certifications as an E-RYT with Yoga Alliance and is internationally certified by the Chinese Health Qigong
 Association of Beijing, China.
 With over 10,000 hours of teaching, she has trained both students and teachers in the art of life-coaching as well as in numerous styles of yoga, meditation and qigong.

Melissa earned her MBA from the Leonard N. Stern School of Business at New York University and is a Phi Beta Kappa scholar.
