​She is a graduate of the MFA program at the University of Tennessee, which is currently in the top 30 programs of the world. She just moved from New York City to be with her Australian husband in Melbourne.
Melissa was signed with Judy Boals Inc in NYC. She had her Off Broadway Debut last year in New Shoes, directed by Candis Jones and put up by The Drama League. 

Latest Review
"While all four performers cemented many memorable moments onstage, David was a standout, with her powerful vocals and enamoring stage presence leading up to a goosebump-inducing eleven-o’clock number called, ‘Hero’."
