Credit for nearly every success Melissa has had up until this point in her career can be traced back to the lessons learned during her four years faithfully serving the Color Guard at Franklin High School in Somerset, New Jersey. The traits developed during that time simply can’t be taught. Whether it’s the discipline required to complete a Bachelor’s degree in Accounting and an MBA from Seattle University, the loyalty to spend 12 years as Assistant Controller at Associated Energy Systems, or the patience to spend countless (at times seemingly endless) hours with the diverse mix of personalities that make up Mattis Partners, her time as a Warrior set the stage for a lifetime of greatness.
Regardless of whether it’s a cross country road trip in the 1980 VW Vanagon, a New Jersey Devils game, conquering the slopes of west coast mountains, or simply a Banana Burrito (banana & nut butter in a whole wheat tortilla) before a long hike in the Olympic Mountains, there are no shortage of outlets Melissa utilizes to escape the chaos of retail real estate.
Her role on the team can be described most simply by the following: “If it involves numbers, requires tireless focus, or has an advanced analytical component its most likely landing spot is on the desk of the proud Warrior from Somerset.”
