She earned her Bachelor's degree in Public Health from the University of Arizona and has spent the last 6 years in leadership at a health insurance company.

She has spent the last 5 months completing a wine harvest in Napa Valley. Her curiosity about wine started when she went wine tasting in Chile in 2014. Melissa is a 1st generation Mexican-American, and her favorite part of her culture is the importance of community and food. Wine's ability to bring people together and its rich history are some of the reasons why she also fell in love with wine. She is excited to represent her culture by growing her knowledge of wine and advocating for her Latinx community. When she isn’t studying wine she is hiking, spending time with her dogs & family, or taking pictures of her food.
