With over 40+ years of winning programming, Melinda Pruitt is one of the original architects of quality childcare delivery in the southeast (though she doesn't do "throw up"). Proudly hailing from Hudson, NY with a sense of human and humor that's not only contagious, but insultingly refreshing and abusively reassuring. Melinda is fueled by her mother's grace and poise and powered by her Roc. Armed with a funny "did you know" for every ill and the ability to honestly empathize beyond the talking points, Melinda Pruitt is a pillar, a phenom and on the verge of her next big move. Meet the Real Pru Diddy, Neiger's first boss and her first international search and rescue survivor.
