Melissa, a native Texan, has been a Plano resident for over 20 years. She and her husband chose this area for the quality of life and exceptional schools. Before moving back to Texas, they enjoyed living in Seattle, Cincinnati, and Minneapolis. Her relocation experiences give her a unique understanding of the challenges of buying and selling both personally, as well as professionally. A licensed Broker, Melissa earned a BBA in Marketing from Southern Methodist University with an emphasis in Real Estate. When not working, Melissa loves spending time with family and friends. Mom to two grown daughters (an emergency medicine physician and a chemical engineer), she enjoys helping clients with all of their real estate needs. She especially finds satisfaction in helping them navigate the process of right-sizing to optimize their next chapter. Melissa is proud to be a member of the Colleen Frost Team, a $50+Million Yearly Producing Team.
