Research Fellow at Stanford University
"Melissa is a wonderful facilitator and talented speaker. I had the pleasure of working with her in a session she ran at Mozfest 2021, during which she showed us how we can develop our own listening and communication skills. Above all, I was impressed with Melissa's ability to make a complex topic easy to understand, and model the skills that she was illustrating for us."
