Melissa Jean-Baptiste is a NYC high school teacher who has a truly creative side that she expresses through a brand called Millennial in Debt. Wanting to do more than just chase clout, Melissa decided that posting content about money and debt could help so many young people out there struggling to figure out money and especially those with piles of student loan debt. After paying off $102,000 in student loans, Melissa bought a house and is super proud of her big ticket purchase and the journey she took to get to where she is now. Melissa and I talk about the importance of being authentic on YouTube, creating her web series about money problems for recent college grads, teaching NYC and so much more!

Melissa's money motto is "Do what works best for you." You can follow her on social media at @millennialindebt
